the claim that children are “born that way” is shown to be false here...these are identical twins, so genetically they are the same.
So his problem is “developmental”: due to something that happened to him early in his upbringing.
However, there is a photo of the “boy” in a pink tutu. So where did he get the “tutu”? I had boys, and didn’t have any in my house (does he have an older sister?)
Which makes me think that he was somehow “programmed” by his parents to be a girl to get attention...either because he saw a sister (is there one? I didn’t read the article) or that he found that he was given positive feedback when he did such things.
When the boys were 5, Kelly and Wayne threw a “get-to-know-me’’ party for classmates and parents. Wyatt appeared beaming at the top of the stairs in a princess gown, a gift from HIS GRANDMOTHER!
