Retired NBA star Dwyane Wade has filed a petition to legally change the name and gender of his 15-year-old son, Zion, who goes by Zaya.
Wade and his wife, actress Gabrielle Union, have said publicly since Zaya was 12 years old that the child is transgender and actually a girl. According to Wade, the child “came out” at age eight.
In a Los Angeles Superior Court petition filed Thursday, Wade asked for Zaya’s gender to be changed to female and that the teen’s name now legally be Zaya Malachi Airamis Wade.
The petition says that Wade has full authority to make decisions for his child, and that the teen’s mother, Wade’s ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches, has been notified of his actions.
Wade in 2020 posted photos of his then-12-year-old son to his Instagram account, praising the child as an LGBTQ+ leader while using female pronouns. “Everyone allow her to re-introduce herself her name is Zaya Wade!” Wade captioned a photo of the young child, who was wearing a bright green tuxedo jacket and pink sash.
“Last night was Zaya’s first red carpet and we couldn’t have been prouder of how she handled the questions that were asked of her,” the former Miami Heat guard wrote. “She has emerged as one of the young faces and voices for the LGBTQ+ community. #truthawards.
”While at an awards show where Zaya was honored, Wade gushed to the audience that the child “came out” to him at age eight. “When our 8-year-old daughter, Zaya Wade, came home and said she had something to tell us, when she came out to us, as a family, we admitted that we weren’t as educated about the LGBTQ+ plus community as we should have been,” he said.

You just did!!!
sick
Liberal Miami media is fawning over this destruction of a child. Wade was a basketball player in Miami, so every move he makes is applauded by the city’s pretend journalists.
I think Cher was not happy with what her daughter did to herself. FWIW.
Your emojis confuse me.
Bull cry field goal?…
Will he also add an apostrophe to its name?
Z’aya or Zay’a?
Freak
Madness
Strong Delusion seems to be beginning

This no less abusive than child molestation.
These are all decisions this kid should have made for himself as an adult. Hope it works out OK for this child, and all of the other children being subjected to these appalling experiments by their parents and the medical and pharmaceutical industries.
I don’t know whether bro laugh scream or shoot
Because men don’t think when it comes to sex. Even satan can appear as an angel of light. But, these men probably never picked up a bible so they reap what they sow.
All this transgender crap is dare I say, like a slap to the face of God.
Like our Creator sure makes a lot of mistakes about assigning one’s gender at birth. Only a twisted, demented, banal and godless mind would teach or try to have a child ‘transgendered’. Utter contempt and zero respect for such as these Woke loons.
Sade, the African singer (Smooth Operater) also has a Trans child, so I have read. Jamie Lee Curtis too.
The wife sure looks like Janet Jackson.
LOL!
Actually - no.
Cattle disappearing/laughter/surrender. I suppose. Mrs rktman constantly reminds me a LOT of people don’t ‘get me’. But she still puts up with me.
as a parent, one should first, do no harm.
just. yikes.
