And the Father never had the inclination to tell explain to the son that he was really a boy and dressing as girl was not a good idea? That is the hardest part for me to believe.
Frankly, in these cases, I strongly suspect the Mom is covertly (or overtly) encouraging this behavior. Or maybe even both parents want a Trans child to get kudos from their liberal friends. Whatever the cause, it is setting these kids up for a lifetime of misery.
Don’t be surprised if he eventually kills himself.
It is interesting that the father is barely in the story other than as a seemingly passive observer of the whole situation.
My husband, who is a MAN as opposed to some limp-wristed, effeminate mangina, would crap a brick if one of our kids did this.
Women can be strange on this issue. They tend not to see anything wrong with it.
One reason it’s a bad idea to give them carte blanche in raising boys.
Munchausen Mom I suspect.
They so badly want to show that it isn't a choice: That people are born that way. This is a religion. If Abraham was willing to do it, why not these parents?
I agree. I think wanting attention & letting your child be the adult trumps any kind of commonsense. My brother had an imaginary friend names “Corny,” imagine if our parents had encouraged it & worked to actively keep it going? Instead it ran its course & life rolled on. There are going to be some angry young adults someday who will ask, “Why did you not parent me?”
It is not a new phenomenon for parents (especially mothers) who wanted to have daughters to push these sexually confusing roles on to their sons. It can have very psychologically devastating consequences. There have been multiple serial killers who later told stories of how their overbearing mothers forced them to dress in girls clothing as children.
