Once that "boy" turns into a teen and discovers she really isn't a he because she liked guys would the fathers label her a "girl" or a "gay transgender" ?

That child needs help. And removed from that household.
Thanks for your opinion, but how a parent raises their child or how their child wishes to be raised in none of your business.

No, that child is in a loving home and does not need help because it goes against your opinion.

do you know there are countless boys who were raped by a man in the house- and some have not fared well at all- but many have grown up - some get help- some just heal- and now they have families and cope very well- and are great fathers- I do believe they should have been removed - and the attacker shot....but what am I saying-- even with all that today they are just men- this is who they are despite the horrible upbringing- not saying 100% - some parents get divorce and their kids go nuts-- so nothing is 100%. You can raise you kid how ever you please-- but seems you in someones esles' business now

Should Shiloh Jolie-Pitt Be Called ‘John’ By The Media? 2015 Declared ‘The Year Of The Transgender Child’
Anything for publicity when old stars get old and out of the media.

If the child is seeing a certified child psychologist and all of that for these issues, that is not child abuse.
It isn't unusual for a child to want to be like the same gender. Mommy or Daddy. So?

It is sad when a little girl doesn't have a mother.

It is being made for her. I suspect she has no female role models and wants to be like daddy. Sad.

Two men raising a little girl? How many girls would want to have been raised by two men? I can see where the problem lies. No female role model. Sad.

If I was in the business of caring for a group of little kids and one day parents told me X was now going to be Y and we all had to deal with it I wouldn't be able to do it. My logical brain doesn't bend that far and I'd constantly feel like I was "playing pretend" as an adult and lying to everyone on a daily basis.

While I do feel for the transgendered I think 6 is way too soon to be insisting the world change for one individual. The fact is it's going to be an issue for that child their entire life so they need to learn to that not everyone is going to go along with what they want. I'm not saying it should ever be mean or vicious, but trying to get the world to call the sky red instead of blue for one person's well being is never going to happen. Transgendered have a burden to bear, it's not everyone else's job to go along with them. We all have our burdens and we should never expect that. It's a simple fact of life that people are desperate to pretend doesn't exist.

We know that there is only one way to conceive a child: male sperm and female egg. I hope that is not open to argument. There are cultures where women live and raise children communally, and the men live apart from them. I think a child can have a healthy development in a home parented by two or more women OR men OR combinations of the two. When these women and men behave like adults living communally that is. When two men living like husband and wife or two women doing the same or mixed aggregations living polyamorously raise children, there will come a time when the disconnect between the dynamic at home comes into direct conflict with the dynamic presented by 97% of the rest of the world. That's bound to create anxiety in some of the children raised this way. I don't think it should be encouraged. But that's me. In many cultures sons are revered. Daughters not so much. Lots and lots of aborted female fetuses. To say nothing of all the baby girls at the bottom of rivers in these countries. Think of all the lives that could have been saved if these people simply raised the sons they wanted, regardless of what actually came out of the oven.

There is no science. Your brain controls you does it not. Without a brain you couldn't function. And a brain defines who you are. Are you going to argue against that.

I think you have hit on the key reason this is so difficult. There is a transgendered person on my job. This individual has done the bare minimum to qualify for that title. Truthfully, transvestite, is a more accurate term for what they are than transgender. However, to be PC we all call that person by the gender they wish to be called. At least once a week someone not in the know makes the mistake of calling this person what they appear to be. That person is then made to feel like an idiot and they spend the rest of the day apologizing and feeling awful.

You say six is too young. Maybe I agree, but, when then? Have you heard the story of the 11 year old whose physical development is going to be halted with drugs until they are 18 and legally able to make the decision for themselves? I think that is lunacy!! They will be 18 years of age in the body of a pre-pubescent child. And that is supposed to be a good thing??? They will have fallen seven years behind all their neighbors and classmates and will have to develop an entirely new social network. And all because the adults involved are too squeamish to take charge.
