Dear Dads, Anyone who has seen the documentary of these kids who want a [censored] change.
Boys of less than 10yrs dressed like girls(pink etc)
what are your thoughts guys?
If your son came home from school and said he wants a [censored] change what would all do? 😎 )

Hi
I think thats when parents need to be strong and tell their children, "son, daughter you are a beautiful creation from
God himself, you are beautiful I wouldn't change you for the world."
But then it stems down to what the individual child has been through,
e.g - maybe there has been bullying from others with remarks like "you look like a", "you act like a" or "I wish I had a"
Plus it doesn't help when there's presenters on tv acting like girls when there boys and girls acting like boys, if all this is
exposed to the young mind, is there any wonder why there's so much confusion within them.
Plus how often does a child change its mind wants one thing today, something else tomorrow.

Thats what I think
I think this is a very complicated subject. Whilst I believe that if someone is so sure that they were born into the wrong [censored] and are really a man in a woman's body or visa versa that they should be able to have a [censored] change with no stigma from the outside world.
I do believe that a child shouldn't be able to have the operation at such a very young age - I don't believe a child should or is able to make such a life changing decision. If in law they are not old enough to legally vote, drink, drive a car, stand as an MP, leave school, have [censored], buy cigarettes, buy solvents then they shouldn't be able to have a [censored] change.
whatever my child decides to do in the future I will support them without judgement however they will have to be old enough to make that decision for themselves.
