Kristie Maldonado and her son, Joe -- who gained national attention when he was barred from his local Cub Scouts pack because he is transgender -- plan to file a discrimination complaint against the regional chapter of the Boy Scouts of America. The complaint claims that the Boy Scouts of America's Northern New Jersey Council, which oversees a number of local scouting troops, violated the state "public accommodation" law by kicking the Secaucus boy out of the local Pack 87 in November, a month after he joined.

Can the Cub Scouts just say your child is not a boy no matter how you may have confused her.

Clever ;-)
For the unaware in the thread, Cub Scouts IS the BSA program for boys in Grades K-5.
That said, there really is no place in the program for either a biological boy who thinks he’s a girl, or a biological girl who thinks she’s a boy. Either would be a crippling distraction.
Also (the obligatory) - If mom isn’t responsible for child abuse that led to this little girl believing she’s a boy, then she is CERTAINLY responsible for the abuse of being an AW and dragging the poor child into the media circus.
BSA committed treason.
XX, XY, Other.
Which is it?
Compass, Broken; 1 each.
Once upon a time this was a useful instrument for pointing the direction a boy should go.
Today, not so much - as the needle has fallen off and rendered the tool into a directionally errant piece of plastic memorabilia.
It wasn’t even two days... heck, barely two hours.
