Abusive mother alert.

I won’t watch Roseanne anyway since her trashing of our National Anthem, so I don’t have any problem with ignoring her.

>>I am the mother of a transgender kid, Kai. She began transitioning at the age of four while being raised in a very conservative, Christian community in the South.
Four year olds should not make life-changing decisions. If Kai had parents and not just DNA contributors who strategically chose a non-gendered name to force this decision on the four year old, then the poor child could have had a normal life.

I Had 4 Boys Until One of Them Told Me She Was Really a Girl
As early as 18 months old, Kimberly Shappley’s son started showing signs he identified as female. Now, the Christian mom shares how she learned to embrace Kai’s transition for her child’s happiness and safety.
By Kimberly Shappley, as told to Breanne Randall
I remember one night when Kai was very young, and I was tucking her into bed. Her legs were cold and, concerned, I lifted the sheets, discovering she had taken a pair of panties off a baby doll and put them on herself. It was constricting her blood circulation and if she’d slept that way overnight, it could have become very dangerous. After that experience, I realized I could no longer ignore something very real about my child: My son, born Joseph Paul Shappley, is a girl.

But it was the South’s fault.

What is the authors point? She has nothing to say here.

Actually, it seems like black people should be complaining about being a token on the reboot. From what I have seen of the show so far, the in-transition carbon-based life form has had some major scenes, but the little black girl on the show has pretty much only appeared in the opening sit-down-at-the table sequence. So you kind of know she’s there, but not why so much. Guess the special interest groups have already set up the priority list.

At about the same age I crawled into the dog house. It was a very mean dog but for some reason it did not bite me but let me share it's dog food and living space.
Earlier in life I had used a dog bone for a chew toy.
I am very glad that my mother did not take this as a sign that her daughter, born a human, was a dog.

a child of four is responsible enough to determine it's own sexuality but a twenty year old isn't responsible enough to drink or own a handgun... right

IF the mother lifted the sheets and discovered Joseph had taken off all his clothes, would she then realize that her son was a NUDIST? or a FLASHER? Dumb

Yeah these attacks are everywhere /s

All these parents blame it on the children and a stupid incident. The parents promote this and the kid is screwed up for life.
You don't think Jenner has a loose screw?

I have seen kids wear pull ups as hats. What does that tell you?
