So, absent any evidence, we slap the kid into therapy and tell him how screwed up he is -- a 5 year-old kid -- and tell the family how rotten the parents are?

Um, how much evidence do you need to see that the boy is outside of the norm of sexual identity?

...we slap the kid into therapy...

Translation: we try to help the kid.

...and tell him how screwed up he is...

Gee, I missed the part of the article where the researchers told the kid that. Could you reference it for me?

...and tell the family how rotten the parents are?

Parenting is a learned skill. Constructive criticism is an essential part of learning and there's a lot more to it that just telling someone they're rotten.
