Any bets on how long before this kid commits suicide? This is worse than the 'fisting' classes, but hey, it sure is progressive.

Well, I am just stumped. I don't understand the value of sending this child to the same school only dressed as a boy. I don't see the value of changeing the name, when everyone will recognize him/her.

The child will have NO male friends as they will think she's a girl. The girls will not have anything to do with her either.

Assuming there was some medical reason for this (anad I am pretty sceptical) I would think a fresh start at a new school would have been the way to go.

And I am still trying to figure out which bathroom.

This poor girl has no one to stick up for her!! Everyone is so worried about being PC (the school is allowing this!!!!) that no one stops to question how this is impacting the girl! Absolutely unbelievable. I am getting angrier and angrier with every post...

This is mass. they said "mother" but not father. It could be this child is burdened with two "mothers". OR the father did the same thing and mommy is training the girl.

The article stated, 'parents', maybe you're reading a little much into this article.

The parents of the 9-year-old child said the youngster was born with the body of a girl, but the brain of a boy.

What the heck does this mean?

There a few cases of boys raised as girls after surgical accidents when they were babies, but I don't think this falls into that category.

Maybe we need to develop a test to be administrated throught the glorious public school system to decide if our children are the correct sex. A simple true false would suffice.
YOU SHOULD ASK FOR DIRECTIONS WHEN YOU ARE LOST (T/F
if you do not know what directions are please close booklet and go to the male side of the room immediately.
SHOPPING IS THE ART OF ENTERING INTO A STORE AND FINDING THE ITEM YOU HAVE ALREADY DECIDED TO BUY AND BUYING IT. T/F
PULL THE FINGER JOKES ARE ALWAYS FUNNY AND APPROPRIATE FOR ANY GATHERING T/F
CHOCOLATE IS AN ESSENTIAL FOOD GROUP T/F
that little quiz oughta settle the matter. Better to find out early in life than to discover your dearly beloved's brain does not match the genitals.

Why does this remind me of the old Steve Martin joke...I was born a poor black child.

So what's happening here is that the school is allowing a fourth-grade child to cross-dress. Just the other day I was reading that a girl wore a tux in her graduation photo and they wouldn't let it go in the yearbook. I guess that wasn't in Massachusetts. Land of the spinning Pilgrim graves.

There is a condition where humans are basically born as hermaphrodites. I knew a family stricken with this and basically the family and doctors have to decide whether they are more-boy or more-girl after birth. From there there are numerous medical treatments. I have not heard of anyone doing this as late as 4 years old though.

Maybe you've never been to Massachusetts, but in this state, parents can be two mothers or two fathers. That's how loony liberal this place is.

G-d speaks for Himself on the matter through His Word. Since this is a conservative news site, it stands to reason that there are religious conservatives here who believe in Truth.

wk4bush2004 was being positive in showing that there is no need for a girl to become a boy because of her parents' will because we are made in God's image -- by His will.
