My daughter told me when she was 5 that she was a girl. I didn't know how long it would last but I had to face the idea that she might actually BE a girl and that if so, her future would be much more difficult than what I would ever choose for her.
Not knowing what to do other than love & support my child, I contacted our Dr & @TENI_Tweets They said don't encourage or discourage, just support her & be lead by her. I was told that trans kids are persistent, consistent & insistent about who they are.
3 years later she is still adamant that she is a girl. She told her friends at school, and then her whole class & her teacher that she was a girl, with no prompting from any adult, she just couldn't not be herself anymore. She asked her friends to accept her as a girl.
