I was born in 1966. At age 7 I asked to start dressing like a boy down to the under ware and I had my waist length hair cut into a boy's style. My mom supported my choices. Turns out I'm just a tomboy. Totally heterosexual, married 27 years lol. But I really liked having my opinions heard and having the support of my parents.
Ya same I’m a girl and I just enjoy wearing clothes made for guys because they are more comfortable and look better. I also enjoyed both playing with barbies and with things like toy cars. I’m heterosexual though and I’m glad my parents didn’t decide to change my gender when I was five.
Me too... I was happy when i could dress myself because I dressed boyish to be comfortable. Played rough games like boys did because I was just a tomboy. My parents never spoke to me like this is what boys do and this is what girls do or this isnt for girls or that isnt for boys. They let me be.. And I'm heterosexual too with a son and husband.Clothes has nothing to do with being a certain gender.
Same here. At one point I was absolutely sure that I wanted to just be a boy. My parents never encouraged any of my choices but they would support me and listen to what I had to Express. Obviously as I grew older, it was evident that I was just a tomboy lol.
People nowadays say that toys and clothes don't define gender, that a boy can play with dolls and wear skirts and that's fine, I agree with that, but they contradict themselves when the first moment the little boy plays or dress with something of "girl" they think it's a girl and start treating it like a girl I thought that the objects didn't define the gender I think the choice of gender should be in adolescence and not in childhood (sorry for my bad english)
In my area people follow all the gender stereotypes when they dress their children. If you ask if a child in a pink allover is a boy or a girl, the parents will judge you. But my mother never dressed me 100% girly, as well as she never dressed my brothers 100% boyish, like, you know, we could play with each other's toys, wear each other's clothes. And now when our separated parents married each other again, our father started spreading all these disgusting stereotypes and applying them on the youngest children in the family
The kid needs to know there are nasty people who will try to bring her down. The parents are giving their kid a taste of the real world. You can't wrap your kids in cotton wool all the time...
Why give put her on Instagram? You are taking her privacy away, especially if she later wants to change back or doesn't want everyone knowing her background.
It looks like this little girl wants to send a message to other children out there who are similar to her. I think it is great that they are showing how to love and support your family.
They are sharing her story to help give support and faith to other families who may or may not be in the same position, and to TEACH PEOPLE about what being transgender means, and is, from a young age, as this girl gets older. This is something people just "go back" from. Being transgender and having gender dysphoria is not a light switch. You can't just turn it off and on, and it doesn't EVER just "go away".
@@cjscornerofthelamplight I fully understand what you're saying but it DOES happen. Not for everyone no, not for the majority. But don't act like it never happens. Here's a video about it th-cam.com/video/-pxxBQm114k/w-d-xo.html

@@Deniseeee84 it's not unethical to allow your child to explore their own feelings. Also by putting this up on social media it spread awareness that trans kids exsist. Which they do. Always have. And always will. I'm sick of you ignorant tyrants who won't update their science. You're the problem. Not trans people.
@@Girlsforever1982 I am so sick of you you ignorant mongrels whom think it is ok for children to take medication to stop their natural growth and allow surgeries to cataract themselves at such a young age. It’s not trans people that is the problem it’s people like you whom encourage parents to let their children make life decisions at 11 and 12 years old etc….it’s people like you YOU are the problem. No matter what medication they take wigs or makeup they may put on or what they may identify as nothing can take away their natural God given DNA this is backed by facts not your idiotic emotions!🙄
Liking pink, dolls, dresses etc doesn't make you a girl. Lots of girls don't like these things, it doesn't make them a boy. But that's what the child claimed to be the reason to change. She could have still liked all these traditional "feminine" activities etc and be a boy.
I got a bit more then that out of what they said. I doubt very much it was just about wearing dresses or not. Stop and think about the amount of people that have probably not realized they had similar things going on in their heads and then ended up on medication and all sorts. The fact that grown men have gone through wars to prove they are men only to leave the army with honors to then transition. Because its more then just frilly dresses.
@@Areyousayingidontknowmyname there should be no point sticking someone in the “girl” box until they hit puberty. I would have been concerned if I only heard that from her, however I agree there are other indicators even for children. Hopefully they ensure she is getting help from mental health professionals etc who can help her deal with whatever comes and prevent anyone from pressuring her into anything.
I shake my head at the fact that those who think you can just swap genders willy nilly are the ones that are THE MOST fixated on gender roles. The average person just does what they do without ever thinking "am I being a girl or boy?" But the transgender community is all "no thats for girls, that's for boys, if I like pink I'm a girl..."
Does anyone watch What Would You Do? I saw an episode where a transwoman wanted to use the ladies restroom. Anyway, another customer has a problem about that. She doesn't want her young daughter in the same restroom with a transwoman. Smh
@@dianachin4849 Time will change that. I can understand why people would feel odd about it. This is still a new thing. Well open in society new. The more people are out and about doing there thing the more people will feel comfortable. The fact that a woman was so distressed by what she deemed a man in a women's toilet actually says more about how little we trust men in society. For very good reason. It certainly would not be the first time some perv has been in a toilet trying to get to kids. So probably less about the trans and more about the man. OH and just to clarify i am not calling the trans person a perv. But the scenario of a man in a female toilet.
She wasn’t gender non-confirming for liking both boy and girl “stuff”, she just didn’t conform to gender ROLES which is way different. This is dangerous.
Got that right. Roles are just subjective cultural standards. 100 years ago women would have been masculine for wearing pants (or as they used to say, britches). But actual gender is a whole different ball game. You get to choose the colors you like, not the gender you're born with. Where the heck is CPS
The only issue I see is that a child should not be plastered all over the internet just because she's transgender. Yes, as a parent it's your job to ensure your child's happiness, and safety. I DON'T see how it could possibly be safe to put your child on the internet at such a young age. If when she is older and wants to tell her own story that's one thing, but to put your child on blast for ANYONE to make fun of, belittle, or receive down right cruel remarks doesn't seem like "protecting" your child. I wish people would stop putting their small children on the internet for being "different" when chances are at some point they will see the DISGUSTING things people say about them, and then the child will TRULY suffer emotionally!!!
I think it be a bigger problem if hormones were involved simply because you never know until later in life. Because youve heard of stories of people completely transitioning but then later regret it because they were still confused on who they really were. And thats just a part of growing up
@@terynb4407 At 9 you don't take hormones tho... She'll maybe start hormone blockers on 12 or 13 and then it's still a far way til taking estrogen and having surgeries.
@@nimue2059 I think you were missing what I was saying a bit. She may not be taking hormones now but I feel as though taking hormones before 18 can be a bit too much simply because how much we change from 9 to 12 and 12 to 16 and even to 16 to 18. She could simply feel one way today but feel another way in a few years time. I was saying that it's cool until hormones come into play because hormones and not getting them are the big life decision that can make a person regret it or not if they do change their mind.
You know that as long as there not medical changes it doesn`t cause any damage ? Like She socialy transitioned, no one will give her hormones or will do any operation to her until way later is SHE want them. The only thing might be hormone blockers and their side effects aren`t something that can`t be prevented with taking vitamins. Letting your child to be depressed because you think as speparete human being they can`t think for themselves is just so ignorant and only shows that most people see their kids as possessions
it’s not a huge decision. this is purely a social transition. changing name/pronouns/clothes aren’t a big deal and aren’t permanent. horme/puberty blockers aren’t permanent either if dempsey decides to get them. i feel like you need to do more research before you comment stuff like this.
@@dehydratedqueen3827 of course it is a huge decision. I always wanted to be a boy when i was a kid. But thank god i grew out of it, most kids grow out of it. Who wants to live on hormone blockers all their lives and in and out of hospital? they will never be the other gender, everytime they go to the hospital they have to declare their DNA gender for drs to treat them accordingly. Who wants his kids to live a messed up life like this?
@@jemmaj2919 the kid in this video DOES NOT have hormone blockers. you don’t have to get hormone blockers to be trans. even if you do then they are 100% reversible. who are you to say wether getting hormone blockers is right for someone? she is only transitioning socially - pronouns/name/clothes/etc. nothing medical. pls do your research.
What she was saying is getting her child to eat her vegetables would be vastly easier than convincing her she's a girl. And the vegetable wars still rage.
My male cousins played with dolls when they were younger & I and my female cousins were were super tomboyish. But we grew out of it as we became older. I feel like parents today doesn't allow their kids to go through phases & then grow out of it. They just assume this is it.
@@El-yo2jq No, I'm saying they might be going through a phase. If they are let them be. Don't transition early, let them start that process when they reach a certain age. Children wants to be a lot of things at that age.
It’s not even like that. So just because she’s a child means that she can’t reach out to others just like her and create a place of peace and acceptance? I say good for her for getting her voice out there. Children deserve to be listened to. They have difficult times just like the rest of us and have the power to speak up against what is not right.
I was obsessed with horses when I was a little girl and ran around the house acting like one. I am so glad my parents didn't build a barn for me to live in.
The biggest issue is that these parents falsely instill that boys and girls act a particular way so when the son does something that is “girly” (e.g. play with barbies), he thinks he wants to be a girl.
@@MLPRainbowFantasy Yeah no, thats complete nonsense. A child does not really know what they are doing or what they say. Kids learn by how their parents interact with them. The parents just saw him play with dolls and instantly crushed this idea into his head. A child could have saw it in the TV and know says it. Just when you say a bad word they instantly adapt it. Children dont even know what a Gender is. A girl just knows that she looks different but nothing more. He probably doesnt even know what this process means. Thats why children should not be allowed to transition until they are done with puberty. Your body and hormones change when you get into puberty and that could have been just a phase, but then it’s probably to late. So stop with your crap and educated yourself.
@@MLPRainbowFantasy I am suggesting the possibility (which is quite high from what the parents said) that he feels like he is a girl because of the values instilled by his parents since birth
The five year olds you probably think you know may not be as brilliant and knowing as this soul. How about instead of questioning that, worry about your own children. And NEVER anyone else’s (idc if it’s your niece/nephew/granddaughter) cause what you THINK you know are just your silly thoughts and quite frankly, it’s none of your business (: Be real... you think these parents woke up one day and were like “let me convince my five year old he or she is trans or different for my enjoyment and so they can be tormented by ignorant assholes”. You’re all exhausting and really the ones who need help.
@@cosmic_rain9417 FYI- by 33 weeks of gestation (thats still a fetus incase you didn’t know), your brain and nervous system is fully functional and developed. So yes, this child at 18 months was consciously aware. Maybe it’s hard for others to see that cause your brain stopped developing at 33 weeks in the womb, but don’t hate on the ones who are doing what they want and loving it here and now in their skin. I would really love to know why this bothers people so much and why it even matters or why you all think you know everything.
I’m half and half on this. If this was my child I would be scared to document/share this with the world. Not because I’m ashamed, but because I want to protect my child from the horrible bullies. But I also understand that you can’t always protect your kid. It’s just hard. And documenting and sharing an unknown territory can be very educational, even if viewers disagree. This family has a lot of love and courage.
Yeh, teaching children about sexuality at a young age is very loving. When I was 9 years old I didn't even understand what sexuality was because my parents didn't talk about it and I hardly watched TV, instead I played sports and did outdoor stuff like children should do. Parents now give children phones and let their kids watch tv shows( kids shows aren't like what they were, they have PC in them now to force a narrative). Children are very opened minded and the amount of social conditioning/engineering that has been done to promote this so-called inclusiveness is just a facade to actually create a state of confusion. When there is confusion there is division and the division is what is truth and what are lies. This has been going on for centuries. Now truth is being censored and ostracized. There is no hope for the next generation.
@@tennis5126 you are right about children being open minded! My best friends brother said my dead name to me. And the youngest boy (my friends niece) said "He's name is Elliot" so yea. Children tend to be open minden, just sometimes curious about things they dont understand. Of course theres always gonna be ignorant kids, just like there are ignorant People in every generation!
@@sawyercornett no doctor will do anything permanent to someone under 18. At this age transition is purely social (clothes, name, etc) stop fear mongering.
As someone who has issues with their gender (gender dismorphia), even I think it’s way too early for the child to transition to the other gender. I do love that the parents are open and accepting of their child however, such a big decision should be made when the child understands the things that come with it. Once they become an adult, then see what they want to do.
@@zonalspore Yh I think giving kids space to find themselves is all that you need to do. Encourage them to do that and not solely focus on gender and sexuality. If they are those things then they’ll know it themselves. You don’t need to expose them to those communities for them to find words to describe what they’re feeling and going through. They’ll just know it.
When I was her age I want to be Elvis, policeman, firefighter, Die Hard evil one character, Dirty Dancing character, Michael Jordan...e.t.c now I'm grown up person and still I wanna be billionaire and immortal of course
What you "want to be" is different to what you are. The individual in this video doesn't "want to be" a girl. She IS a girl. My sister when she was 3 told me "I wish I was a boy, I want to be a boy". That was just a phase and she has outgrown it now. That's not the same thing AT ALL as being transgender.
@@pcatma yes, but what if your parents had heard your sister say that she wanted to be a boy and took it to mean she was transgender and started to talk to her as though she was? Kids are easily influenced and at that age they don’t even know how they feel themselves (as they don’t have a developed brain yet) so they put a lot of stock into what their parents say. So yes, it was a phase for your sister but if your parents had acted differently your sister may now be a “boy” despite not actually being trans. That’s why we shouldn’t talk to our kids about this at such a young age. Just because a boy plays dress up in skirts or a girl wants short hair and likes to play in the mud doesn’t mean they are nit their biological gender. However, Suggest that to them and they may start believing they are…
Sick parents doing this to their child, forcing her son to be the daughter she wished she had. I feel very sorry for today’s children who have sick parents like these two nut jobs. When I grew up this would have been called child abuse and that’s exactly what it is.
"transgender is (...) or born a boy and you LIKE girl stuff. like me." Well no. That was a horrible explanation. This is literally a social acceptance thing. Just because someone likes "stuff" the other gender is commonly associated with (which is absolutely idiotic btw) does not mean you're automatically transgender. If this is what she is believing then there may be regret in the future. If not then good for you. But that "I like the other genders toys, clothes etc. more so I'm the other gender" is really dangerous in some cases.
It's illegal to have surgery under 18 unless on the rarest if occasions where multiple doctors have signed off on it. Go learn something. Your opinion are useless.
There's a huge, fundamental difference between being transgender, and being 'gender non-conforming'. Being gender non-conforming means, for example, you are a girl who prefers 'boys' toys, 'boys' clothes, etc. You don't have interests that are seen as traditionally feminine or girly, but you are still a girl, you still know you are a girl in your heart and your mind. (This was me when I was a kid!) Being transgender is VERY different. Being transgender, like the girl in the video, means you KNOW you are not the gender you were assigned at birth. You know that you are in a body which does not match up with what you feel in your mind and your heart.
I dressed as a boy and was one, I found out at his age back in the early 2000s but transitioned way later into my 20s, best decision, I really am a man and it feels better this way
These dumbass parents obviously don't know what a phase is. I painted my nails in high school and wore mohawks. Now I'm just a normal everyday looking dad. My parents side eyed me alot. But never tried to make me something i wasn't. Unlike these parents.
As a child she was confused on who she was. they wanted to figure it out so they asked her if "this" is how she felt and she said "yes" and then they told her what it was. No problem 🤷♀️ I'm thankful that these parents are letting their child be who she is when parents don't accept or Force someone to do something that makes them unhappy it causes a lot of problems including suicide, mental issues, body dysphoria, anxiety, depression etc
I believe as a christian that parents should not allow this because it goes against the bible. That does not mean not to love the child but not like what he wants. If I was the parent I would probably send them to therapy. If he was older than 18 and wanted to change to a girl you cant say anything but you can advise them.
@@ezekielscomedykitchen5006 As a Christian woman personally I think you are very transphobic and need to stop putting your fake bible ways on this young TRANS girls life.
@@melanies6511 she is only wearing different clothes if she changes her mind later there's been no medical procedures. Also children do indicate what makes them comfortable in terms of gender expression.
How can 18 month old be gender non-conforming, what the heck. At 18 months, most children can't say a full few sentences let alone decide their gender.. Absolutely disgusting to see this parents manipulate their child like this.
Agreed. This child isn’t a girl bc he hasn’t got women genitals . This child still has male genitals so this child is still a boy till this child gets proper female genitals . To be a girl you have to have a vagina and to be a boy you have to have a penis .
They taught her about everything she know about transgender. No child knows about things until they are taught. So his parents definitely influenced it 100%
Because it has a name and they educated her about it. She already knew she was different at a very young age. You act like they don’t know, but they do.
The kid literally said “I’m sad because I don’t feel like myself” that child has no idea what being transgender is, all they know is what the parents tell them. People like you are the reason why this world is so complicated, sensitive, and just flat out delusional
I don’t see how it will matter tbh. When they’re young they socially transition and wear the clothes they want, nothing permanent 🤷🏽♂️. Even puberty blockers have no long lasting affect.
She’s so cute 🥺🥺 Even if, as she grows older, she turns out discovering she is not transgender, she will have had a happy childhood and was to be able to express herself the way she wanted to… I think their parents are doing the right thing to let her dress and act the way she wants to, it isn’t harming anyone :)
@@spencer_fife_and_drum_john9152 sure, there are "biological" genders. but ultimately the only thing that matters is what gender identity you feel is the most comfortable to you. This little girl is not hurting you in any way, so let her be who she wants to be because it makes her happy. You don't have any choice regarding her happiness.
I'm a little confused on why they needed to explain to a young child what trans meant. Those kind of topics are a bit blurry for me when to bring it up. I think they should have let pronouns, etc. be left alone while letting her do what she wants like toys, clothes, etc. because those things don't dictate who you are.
Because she knows that she's a girl, but she doesn't know the term for it and they want her to know that its completely okay to be this way and that she's not the only one
As Maddie said, is not the same to act a certain way that wanting to be a girl. That's what they asked: do you feel like a girl? Do you want us to call you "she"? And she said yes. That is transexual. I feel like explaining the process what quite difficult, so it's a bit confusing.
And it is an issue to bring such topics up because? also, she knew that the term "he" wasn't right for her. therefore she chose to identify with the female gender. the parents explained what it was called, I don't see an issue within that either.
if a kid asks a serious question you should be honest with them and have a discussion. it doesn't have to be harsh and adult but keeping the word a ~secret~ is like saying Dusty's ran away to grandpa's farm. maybe your parents made you blissfully delusional, but some people live in the real world🤗
Why can't the parents wait? Why can't they let their child dress up as a girl at home and be a boy in public? Let the child potential outgrow this. If they still feel this way in their teens then sure transition but not when ur 9!
John Johnson My cousin is trans, I might have an explanation that can help you 😊 If she has the mind of a girl then making her dress like a boy would be the same as your parents making you dress like a girl when you were a kid. The parents are just trying the least detrimental route. Hope that helps.
@@GerardWay4President Fair point, there is no homogeneous "woman" or "man" brain. The best way I can relate to it and try to explain it (I'm not trans so this may not be my place) is if someone has ever misgendered you, it feels uncomfortable, gross, just *wrong*. So if you are born male but are trans and everyone referring to you as "he" and a boy and such feels *wrong*, and if people referring to you as "she" or a girl feels right, then you have the mind of a girl.
When I was like 8 or 9 i loved Bratz dolls and My Little Pony but thank god my parents did not think I was transgender and have me transition. I think 9 is way too young. The flag with her face on it makes me think the parents played a big roll in this transition..... Part of me is sentimental with the parents because I am not sure what I would do too, but 9 is way too young in my opinion. I definitely am against putting the child on hormone blockers at such a young age
The Child hasn't even reached puberty yet. When I was a kid I hated all girl toys and loved cars and tools. I'm completely straight I just like boy toys. Thank you mom and dad for not forcing me to change into a boy... yall need to chill and give your child TIME to decide what to do.
And you know what I found interesting is what the dad stated " it will be abuse if I didn't let her play with girls things because she is a boy" does that mean every child liking a boy or girl toys make them that gender, kids are called kids for a reason and to be honest no one is satisfied with their gender to the fullest but that doenst mean they don't fit that gender :)
@@diananaddo8392 exactly. Even now, I play video games and I fix my own cars. I can weld and I played football. But, I'm straight and I know I'm a female. I like more typical male things than I do typical female. I was just exposed to more testosterone. Doesn't mean I should have been turned into a boy. I'd be miserable now!
When I was 9 years old I was a "tomboy" I dressed like a boy, wanted my hair short, begged for a remote control car for my birthday instead of barbies, played with the boys and found girls boring. I never had a pretty room or played dress up. My mom let me do my thing but she would always encourage me to be more girly or do "girly" things. I am so grateful I didn't grow up in this day and age, these poor children must be so confused and so are their parents! Today I am a girly girl, married to a wonderful husband and have a gorgeous baby boy. Just because your child has shown interest in something "not meant for their gender" does not mean you now have to change their identity completely! Then again, if parents these days responded the way my mother did back in the day, they would be called out for "not supporting their child in this modern world".....and what a world it has become!
Exactly . 👍 dead right: When I was younger I liked cars and dolls and I always wanted girl clothes but boy toys and I just wanted to hang out with both boys and girls but I’m glad that my parents didn’t label me gender fluid . Today I am a 14 year old girly girl and I have a boyfriend who lives in USA and I live in New Zealand 🇳🇿. I’m so glad that my parents never actually thought I was gender fluid cuz I just liked all things
@Lucy Hinds Signing Channel The kid is nine. He does not understand the choices he is making, if he even is making them, which I doubt. It isn't mean to call out bad parenting.
"I can't force my kids to eat their vegetables let alone change their gender"..... My God.. Very obvious the mother did whatever she wanted when she was young, no discipline from her own parents, then you get parenting like this.
It's a bad comparison yes but as a mom of 4. I also cannot force my child to eat vegetable some like them some don't I also won't keep serving my child things they don't like. I see what the mom meant this child is gonna grow up knowing at least my mom and dad supported me and that's love.
My thing is with these type of people, and yes I’m saying these type of people who go beyond means just to beat the “socially normal” ways. They refuse to hear any criticism or disagreements. They automatically call you an online bully, hater etc. They will call you judgmental but if you put your whole life on the internet you are asking for it. It appears that the mother is controlling the situation here and contradicts herself a lot. Hopefully this little girl is actually transgender and not a boy who happens to enjoy barbies and pink.
Exactly. People are completely denying and stepping on different beliefs because it goes against their own. They think that they are being completely tolerant when in reality, all they are doing is being intolerant.
I think you're missing the point. There is no negative argument to be had here. And if you're berating and making fun of this child for her identity then that is called harassment and those parents have every right to call you out for it. Regardless of their personal choices to share the story of their child with the world. Treat other people the way you want to be treated, plain and simple.
@@TheFaustianAlchemist you or the parent? Do honesty think a 7 year old chose to be a trans or did the mother wanted her kid to become trans? You're not here to argue if you thinks it's humane, you don't care like every other child abuser.
@@TheFaustianAlchemist the kid said it, that makes so much sense, if I bring up logic you're gonna shut me down because you can't win an argument without using your brain.
Kids aren’t educated enough to make decisions like this at this age. This is child abuse and it’s bad parenting. Instead of blindly putting them into such a massive decision like this they should be educated and taken care of and given a chance in the real world.
The most important thing is to define what really is "old enough". By no means am I against trans people - my best friend is trans, which hasn't changed our relationship in the slightest - but ultimately you can't give an 8-year-old the power to decide what they do with their health; that just defeats the purpose of parents.
Remember nothing is permanent at her age, she cant even get hormones until 12 and most kids wait anyway. You dont have to worry, they know what they're doing
“My child likes the color pink and likes to play with dolls so they are gender non-conforming” is just so incredibly closed-minded. Can these parents please quit stereotyping their child’s behavior into a girl/boy box?
Bro the “pink for girls and blue for boys” is not true . When I was younger my favorite color was purple . My favorite color is green and I’m a girl so my question is Is green a boy or a girl color?
Gender dysphoria is a clinical diagnosis where a person, child or adult, does not associate him/her self with their biological gender at birth. in some cases, the dysphoria is very deep-rooted and to press such a person into a mould which society envisages for that person is to make that person's life a misery and possibly suicidal. Hormone blockers can be used to delay puberty, but these may not be enough and surgical intervention may be necessary. Such decisions are not made lightly but are based on psychological, life-style and need, involving clinical professionals. The main drawback from clinical intervention is the subsequent inability of transitioned children to have their own children later on in life when they become adults. This factor might not be understood in younger children.
Nobody NEEDS hormone blockers and surgical intervention for gender dysphoria. That causes more problems than it fixes. How about we tell kids that you can like girly things or be a tom boy without having to mutilate your private parts.
@@GerardWay4President Mr President -- That's not what the Medical Establishment believe (go to any official website). So, you would force you infant daughter to play with dolls if she wanted a football for her birthday, or your son to play football if he wanted a doll. How cruel! It might be akin to forcing you to become a Marine, if you had no interest in the military and you were a Conscientious Objector. Also, your choice of the term "mutilate," is most inept. Surgical intervention is only carried out as a last resort after careful consultation amongst doctors and parents. It could be that your children would grow up hating you for forcing them to become someone they are not, and as soon as they financially can, they pay to become trans people, partly to spite you.
@@LaHayeSaint No, I would let my kids play with whatever child-friendly toys they want. I just wouldn’t tell them that what toys they play with determines their gender identity, and I sure as hell wouldn’t be giving my child hormone blockers, nor would I lie to my child that they’re a boy or girl when they’re not.
@@LaHayeSaint By the way, the medical establishment also thought that blood letting and thalidomide were good ideas at a certain time. Doesn’t mean that position won’t change once we see just how much damage transitioning children too young causes.
It’s very obvious that the mother is abusing her kid. The kid is literally just regurgitating things the mother has told them ‘my true self’ etc sounds a lot like something they’ve been told. She is a sick woman and needs therapy. She is abusing her kids for her own gain on social media and attention. Sick stuff
How the hell do you know at 18 months old if a child is gender non conforming just because he didn't like boys toys.I had cars and a garage a castle and knights but it didn't mean I was a boy or wanted to be one ?Absolutely ridiculous.
I have seen several TH-camrs who are transferring back and having problems. They all said, a child shouldn't be allowed to make these choices. They need so much surgery now. Just a different perspective on this
That's true, but there are even more TH-camrs who have continued with hormone therapy and feel much better. All that matters currently is the child's happiness. I don't think she should have surgery any time soon, but the hormone therapy won't hurt anything.
Kids are very vulnerable to suggestions. Liking certain toys, clothes, or colors does not mean trans. I’m an all girl mom with 3 daughters. Only one likes pink, bows, and girly things. The other two have no interest in girly things and I could get them anything they dreamed of and if it arrived pink they’d probably instantly hate it, but I guarantee they aren’t trans. One of my daughters has an oversized sweatshirt Billie Eilish clothing style but talks of wearing sneakers under her wedding dress that match her husbands. I feel that children should just be, and later on if they’re struggling ask them questions to help them figure things out but don’t suggest or rush into anything.
Children are nothing but suggestive, hence they're children. Someone needs to suggest to these parents that they actually tell their son he's a boy and that's great. And have that sucka eat his veggies 🥕 🥬....worst parent of the Year award goes to them and Hitler's dad
My concern is that being a girl seems to be rooted in a rigid definition of girls toys girls clothes. That has absolutely nothing to do with being a girl.
Not to hate but I think the parents should wait till shes 16 years old or over because once you take the hormones and gender surgery she won't be able to have kids of her own and for sure once she's much older she will definitely feel different so I hope her parents wait till she's older before she takes hormones or change gender.
theyre not giving her hormones or surgery until shes old enough (hormones are probably around 15-16 and surgery is at 18 or after). they havent even given her puberty blockers yet, and they aren't even permanent.
Think about the pain this child would have to go through during puberty, knowing that she is a woman yet still having to turn into a man because her feelings as a human being aren’t valid until she turns 16.. it makes no sense to me truly how anybody would think it’s right to force a child through puberty when it will cause nothing but dysphoria and self hatred, knowing that all they wanted was to be themselves from the very start
She is not on any type of hormones. She is simply socially transitioned which just means she dresses “girly” and goes by she her. Frankly when a child is that young it’s pretty clear that they’re truly transgender.
You say "no hate" and then immediately make statements that assume the parents don't know what they are doing or would hurt their child. While not hateful necessarily, they certainly are hurtful. It's also pretty presumptuous of you to make the statement that she will "definitely feel different" when she is older. You have no way of knowing that. At this age, no child is taking hormones like estrogen or testosterone to produce gender changes. Why? Because they haven't reach puberty. Giving a child this young hormones their bodies will eventually produce if left alone would be inappropriate as well. As noted at about 4:44, at the very beginning of puberty, she may choose to take a puberty blocker. This will delay puberty without causing any permanent changes in her body. That will give her more time to make decisions about hormones. When her body is ready and she has worked with her physician, she may choose to take estrogen, but that is years away. Generally speaking, any surgeries, the most permanent of changes one can make, will wait until she is much, much older. Nothing that is being done now removes her ability to live as a girl, boy, fluid, or non-binary person later. As for the inability to produce biological children goes, a) there are options that can be explored if that is important to her and b) none of us are promised fertility. There are so, so many people unable to produce biological children for a variety of reasons. Lots of them have children in other ways. Lack of fertility is not the same as not having children of your own. This only seems weird because a conscious decision may be made in the future, but even that decision is made by plenty of cis gender people every year. I know of at least three off hand who decided they did not want biological children and had surgeries to prevent just that. Her parents are doing what is best for her being right now. They will continue to do so in the future, all while consulting with and following the advice of a physician skilled in these types of treatments. This child is healthy, happy, and most importantly, loved.
Legally, you can't have hormone replacement therapy until you're 16 or sex reassignment surgery until you're 18, plus you have to go to gender clinics and speak to multiple doctors and psychiatrists before medical transition, which is why less than 0.5% of trans people feel transition related regret. Every way she has transitioned so far (e.g changing pronouns and growing her hair) is completely reversible, in a few years she could start puberty blockers but they are also completely reversible.
I realized that no one is happy in this world...its like a hand full of people authentic left. Otherwise we living in the last episode of the twilight zone...
You're right. No one is happy. I've been single my whole life and no one is interested in marrying me from the US. I either scare them away or I'm being too nice and loyal. Mostly giving them respect freaks them out
Who is happy all the time? Imo you are expecting something that isn't reality. life ultimately is just a collection of moments, some good and some bad. Maybe focus on the good moments a little more?, Or maybe think of how many people have it worse than you do, and that would make you appreciate happy times a little more?, Idk just throwing it out there

Did you stay up at night unable to fall asleep for years because all you wanted was to be a cat? Did you look at all the other little cats and feel terrible about yourself because you just couldn't see why you were different. Did looking in the mirror hurt because with all your heart, knew that there should be a cat staring back at you? Were you in constant psychological distress because you knew deep down, you truly were a cat? The psychological distress that trans kids isn't invalid because of their age. Children are able to conceptualise their gender at a very young age, and it's very different to playing pretend. A child knowing their trans identity is not comparable to a fleeting inconsequential desire to pretend.
1). You can't change your gender. You can chop off your spigot and take hormones but your chromosomes will always say you're male. 2). The term "transgender" didn't even exist until recently. 3). Of course there are people today who call themselves "trans." The degree to which you support and cheerlead them reflects the degree to which you're brainwashed by the satanic media.
Your child might want to wear girl clothes which is fine but to go ahead and changed her whole gender is straight up crazy. Children that age also wants have ice cream for breakfast but do we allow them to do that? No because they’re CHILDREN.
My son went through a phase of wanting to be ‘girly’ around 6 years old too.. but I told him ‘No.. because you’re a boy.’ As a single mom, I recognized he was mostly only exposed to female role-models (like mom, grandma, teachers, daycare workers, etc.) and I continued only buying him boy clothes and toys. Surprisingly, he’s not currently growing up as gender-confused 10 year old. He appreciates being a boy, and expresses great interest in becoming a grown man some day. 🙂 However, I doubt that would be the case had I AND his dad (if he were around) ENCOURAGED those sassy behavioral whims by painting his room pink, & buying him skirts, barbies, & lip gloss. People don’t accept biological males in female sports (logically) because of the unfair physical advantage.. and MOST people don’t want a relationship with a transgender person simply because IT ISN’T NATURAL.. so the future dating potential for transgender kids is either limited at best, if not founded on deceit. Transgender kids shouldn’t be brought up under a false notion that they won’t face any serious obstacles throughout life as a result, or with a false sense that society is in ANYWAY obligated to continue expressing the same level of enthusiasm toward them as an adult, as their ‘parents’ have throughout their childhood.. because for the most part, they simply aren’t. And that rude awakening & stark reality can often become overwhelmingly devastating for teens.. as the suicide rates unfortunately indicate. And this isn’t ‘society’s’ fault either.. society is fulfilling their obligation with transgender employment, school acceptance, etc.. but you can NEVER criminalize someone for asserting the position ‘I respect that you’re transgender, but it just isn’t for me ..so I’d rather date someone else.’ or ‘I’d rather just hang out with this other person.’ THAT ALONE.. that personal rejection, which cannot be regulated.. is something any kid who’s being raised as transgender should be prepared for.. because like it or not.. that’s just the reality they will face. Acceptance on the surface, but often nothing more. 😥 Prayers for this kid. 🙏🏼 - God Bless
How could one possibly know anything about their sexuality at 9 years old. It’s before puberty it’s before any real education or social interactions. You literally know nothing about life at that point which is fine because at that age you are just supposed to be having fun and learning
This child is AMAZING!!!! What a heart and what wisdom. In my mind, God made her this way to help teach the world compassion, acceptance and LOVE. She is exactly who's she is supposed to be and is spreading light to the world. Beautiful child. 🥰🥰🥰
There’s nothing more powerful to a child than having their parents love and accept them unconditionally. I’m not transgender but I was raised by a narcissistic parent who made sure that I felt “not enough,” flawed, and unloveable. In order to receive emotional breadcrumbs from my parents, I had to perform and people-please, as “love” was very conditional in my home. I can tell that the girl in this video feels fully seen, heard, understood, and loved by her parents. That is the greatest gift that parents can give to a child. I know that this child will grow up having self-love and healthy personal boundaries, which will be of great benefit to her. Kudos to these wise and empathic parents!
Gender “nonconforming” at 3 years old? That’s the issue there. Just because a kid likes blue more than pink, or unicorns and dolls more than fire trucks and dump trucks doesn’t mean they’re “gender noncomforming”. Toys and colors don’t have a gender.
Do you seriously think the parents never looked any deeper than colors and toys? This was not something they decided on-the-fly. It took YEARS. For this girl to do anything more than a change of clothing, toys and name she will need to convince multiple doctors and therapists who are trained to spot the trans children and abused children.
If they forced it on her while they're having two older boys... shouldn't they ALL had been "forced" to be trans? It was HER choice, and her parents are dealing with it like any good parents should, by loving their kids, supporting and accepting them as they are... not forcing them anyhow to be something that they aren't.
So if my child wants to drink and do drugs am I going to allow that ? At some point the father has to step in and take charge. This family needs a reality check. How is a 9 year old boy going to decide what gender he is when he doesn’t even know what job he wants to be when he’s older ? How about instead of children trying to change their gender, we focus on building our children up and teaching them life skills, instead of giving them the “ok” to mutilate themselves and make life altering decisions. I pray for this child and hope he doesn’t suffer long term trauma because what his parents are doing should be considered child abuse.
Victor, You have to realize that a child is not to make decisions with the guidance of parents. The blame will entirely be on the parents...Before God's eyes, the parents should guide the children teach them that it's a sin to alter His creation. I pray that she doesn't go ahead with the evil thoughts in Jesus CHRIST Holy Name. ❗
mhm okay, it is not exactly easy to force a child to do what you want them to do. I was trans as a child and everyone always think that the parent force you to be trans- but never have my parents forced me to do anything💀 and now im an adult and still trans
I honestly wish you would let these kids grow up first and if that’s what they want to do when they are grown/18 and educated cause just maybe they might have a change of mind. And once you lose it you can’t get it back. Education and growth. Then you let the CHILD do what they believe in and want for their life.
If you do this the children live all their childhood in a wrong identity. Plus, the earlier you start hormone treatment the more the person will look like their true gender as an adult. Of course you have to wait a bit to make sure it's not a phase. With this girl that's already very clear.
@@CandraJade84 I’m sorry but that’s not a girl. No matter how much/hard you try. He will never be a girl it’s all a facade and I don’t have any problems with that. I just know better and not in the blind.
Completely agreeable, have these people seen kids?, they think they're ninjas before 13, that doesn't mean you send them into a heavily guarded fortress guarded samurai to assassinate a daimyo just because "THEY'RE FEFES SAID SO!"
when I was a kid I always wanted to be a boy, I feel that it was influenced because I am the only girl in my family and I have two brothers. I even once went to the prize section in a certain competition and replaced the doll I won with a toy car. During my teenage years, I have questioned myself whether I'm a boy or a girl. It happened more often after I got to know about the LGBTQ people. Now as a grown-up I know I was just a tomboy. Usually, children grow out of their gender dysphoria in time by waiting and reasoning or with "help from a therapist or psychologist. I feel like transition affirmative therapies inflict lasting harm to the child by experimenting on the child.
For children her age, the only transition they do is using a different name and pronouns, buying new clothes, cutting/growing out hair, and possibly hormone blockers (which are 100% reversible). Not that they have to do all those things, of course. But if the kid realizes they are not trans, no permanent changes have been made and they can continue on their life as their assigned gender at birth. It just makes it so much easier to transition later on, if they decide to, when their transition has started before puberty. And it can save the trans individual from a lot of gender dysphoria.
What defines feeling girly? Liking dresses? Wearing makeup? If a girl likes stereotypically masculine activities she’s considered a tomboy but why is it if a boy likes stereotypically feminine things he’s transgender?
I suggest you all check out the videos of NUMEROUS of children who have grown up and do NOT want to be trans. There's a big lawsuit going on right now against parents and doctors for allowing this foolishness. One girl was allowed to transition, now she cant have children and her vocal changes are irreversible.
I hope everyone who sees this does so with an open mind. All I see here is parents who love a child, who let their child be who she is. Listen to Dempsey. Every child deserves to be loved for who they are. People who spew judgemental comments just really don't know. I hope "meeting" Dempsey helps change their minds. Dempsey is in the driver's seat. Her parents support her unconditionally. That kind of parenting saves lives.
I'm against what they're doing. And although you said, "People who spew judgement just don't really know," I DO know. My sister is trans, and my brother-in-law. They got a divorce and they're both changing their sex. This leaves my 4 year old nephew in disarray and literally in need of therapy. It also effects my parents who are past their 60's and emotional distraught and having to help take care of my nephew while his parents focus on their new genders. I'm not spewing judgement, I'm living it and responding to the damage being done. You're taking the easiest moral high ground, "let people be who they think they are." Life isn't black and white, there's nuance and middle ground.
I wish your nephew well. Therapy is probably a good idea, but people shouldn't deny their true selves because it makes people uncomfortable. divorce is hard, transition can be difficult. But for a lot of these kids it also saves lives. Please take my comment for what it's worth: I don't wish any pain on anyone and I'm sorry your family has been through it. But it terms of inflicting the least amount of pain, you're right that it isn't black and white. However, when a kid tells you who they are, allowing them the unconditional love and support is, to me, the right thing that will ease difficulties.
Who allows their child or children to have an exact consisting adult making choice of that age anyhow and yet the (CPS) Child Protective Services should take that little away from these disqualified parents .
I think we grow to appreciate who we are i mean the gender we are born as cos I remember I really wanted to be a boy in the early stages of my life and from how I remember it, I would have been made to transition if I was born to a society that supports those stuffs..sitting here and reminiscing makes me realize that , that would have been the biggest mistake of my life cos i absolutely love being a girl and I just can't imagine how wonderful motherhood and womanhood in general will be.
Omg same I think most girls(not all girls) will experience wanting to be a boy, I did once bit I didn't dress as one. Now I am much older I am more of a tomboy. But I would never think of Turing into a boy tho
I still want to be a boy sometimes but I jist use a strapon with a fine female and im good for a couple weeks lol, im so glad I never got rid of my lady parts but to each is own, she might decide she wants to be a boy again who knows its just crazy
Your experience is not universal and saying "born in society that supports this stuff" really says a lot, and it's not good. Support is not a bad thing. I was always boyish, I was questioning my gender identity since when I was a kid. I knew of trans people and educated myself about them almost daily. Guess what? Didn't once think to transition. I thought about what testosterone would do to my body and decided it's not for me. I still question my gender identity to this day. I wanted a binder then, I still want one now. I still want to experiment with more masc styles and trying to figure out how to look like that on certain days. It's not nearly as impulsive as you guys make it out to be.
They are already confuse with their identity and what makes u think how the clothes affect them. No point arguing with them cauze they themselves can't even decide what makes them a trans in the first place.

4:03 "Abuse would be not letting her be who she is, telling her you are not allowed to play with that because you are not a girl" THAT IS LITERALY WHAT THESE PARENTS ARE DOING, they are teaching this boy that in order to do stereotypically girly things he must transition to be a girl, and literally that he cannot play with girl stuff until he transitions to be a girl omg the hypocrisy!
I was born in 1966. At age 7 I asked to start dressing like a boy down to the under ware and I had my waist length hair cut into a boy's style. My mom supported my choices. Turns out I'm just a tomboy. Totally heterosexual, married 27 years lol. But I really liked having my opinions heard and having the support of my parents.
Ya same I’m a girl and I just enjoy wearing clothes made for guys because they are more comfortable and look better. I also enjoyed both playing with barbies and with things like toy cars. I’m heterosexual though and I’m glad my parents didn’t decide to change my gender when I was five.
Well each person is different and maybe this girl is trans.
@Kailani Keck she has been married for 27 years.
Me too... I was happy when i could dress myself because I dressed boyish to be comfortable. Played rough games like boys did because I was just a tomboy. My parents never spoke to me like this is what boys do and this is what girls do or this isnt for girls or that isnt for boys.
They let me be.. And I'm heterosexual too with a son and husband.Clothes has nothing to do with being a certain gender.
Same here. At one point I was absolutely sure that I wanted to just be a boy. My parents never encouraged any of my choices but they would support me and listen to what I had to Express. Obviously as I grew older, it was evident that I was just a tomboy lol.
People nowadays say that toys and clothes don't define gender, that a boy can play with dolls and wear skirts and that's fine, I agree with that, but they contradict themselves when the first moment the little boy plays or dress with something of "girl" they think it's a girl and start treating it like a girl
I thought that the objects didn't define the gender
I think the choice of gender should be in adolescence and not in childhood
(sorry for my bad english)
I do agree with some of what you say, but she did state that she's a girl, and is noticeably much happier identifying as such.
Very good point
Leave kids alone what they choose to do after 18 is there choice
In my area people follow all the gender stereotypes when they dress their children. If you ask if a child in a pink allover is a boy or a girl, the parents will judge you. But my mother never dressed me 100% girly, as well as she never dressed my brothers 100% boyish, like, you know, we could play with each other's toys, wear each other's clothes. And now when our separated parents married each other again, our father started spreading all these disgusting stereotypes and applying them on the youngest children in the family

Liking pink, dolls, dresses etc doesn't make you a girl. Lots of girls don't like these things, it doesn't make them a boy. But that's what the child claimed to be the reason to change. She could have still liked all these traditional "feminine" activities etc and be a boy.
I got a bit more then that out of what they said. I doubt very much it was just about wearing dresses or not. Stop and think about the amount of people that have probably not realized they had similar things going on in their heads and then ended up on medication and all sorts. The fact that grown men have gone through wars to prove they are men only to leave the army with honors to then transition. Because its more then just frilly dresses.
@@Areyousayingidontknowmyname there should be no point sticking someone in the “girl” box until they hit puberty.

I shake my head at the fact that those who think you can just swap genders willy nilly are the ones that are THE MOST fixated on gender roles. The average person just does what they do without ever thinking "am I being a girl or boy?" But the transgender community is all "no thats for girls, that's for boys, if I like pink I'm a girl..."

OH and just to clarify i am not calling the trans person a perv. But the scenario of a man in a female toilet.

This is Wrong.
I'm transgender and I'm 10
Got that right. Roles are just subjective cultural standards. 100 years ago women would have been masculine for wearing pants (or as they used to say, britches). But actual gender is a whole different ball game.
You get to choose the colors you like, not the gender you're born with. Where the heck is CPS
The only issue I see is that a child should not be plastered all over the internet just because she's transgender. Yes, as a parent it's your job to ensure your child's happiness, and safety. I DON'T see how it could possibly be safe to put your child on the internet at such a young age. If when she is older and wants to tell her own story that's one thing, but to put your child on blast for ANYONE to make fun of, belittle, or receive down right cruel remarks doesn't seem like "protecting" your child. I wish people would stop putting their small children on the internet for being "different" when chances are at some point they will see the DISGUSTING things people say about them, and then the child will TRULY suffer emotionally!!!
I totally agree with that because there are pedophiles and weirdos waiting to make comments or subjectify the child

@@jemmaj2919 the kid in this video DOES NOT have hormone blockers. you don’t have to get hormone blockers to be trans. even if you do then they are 100% reversible. who are you to say wether getting hormone blockers is right for someone? she is only transitioning socially - pronouns/name/clothes/etc. nothing medical. pls do your research.
Did she just compared choosing your gender to eating your vegetables? There is something wrong with this family.
What she was saying is getting her child to eat her vegetables would be vastly easier than convincing her she's a girl. And the vegetable wars still rage.
She was saying that if she has a hard time getting her to eat vegetables then it doesn't make sense that she would be able to force her to be a girl
Why can't a child wear what they want, play with what they want, without parents having to label and transition them.
I suggest you watch the video at 1:20, because they explain what the Little Girl Says about her identity
It's not the interests that make her transgender. It's her identity and inner self and she knows that.

The biggest issue is that these parents falsely instill that boys and girls act a particular way so when the son does something that is “girly” (e.g. play with barbies), he thinks he wants to be a girl.

She (not he) actually FEELS as a girl.
Nothing to do with the toys, those were just a possible indicator.
@@MLPRainbowFantasy Yeah no, thats complete nonsense. A child does not really know what they are doing or what they say. Kids learn by how their parents interact with them. The parents just saw him play with dolls and instantly crushed this idea into his head. A child could have saw it in the TV and know says it. Just when you say a bad word they instantly adapt it. Children dont even know what a Gender is. A girl just knows that she looks different but nothing more. He probably doesnt even know what this process means. Thats why children should not be allowed to transition until they are done with puberty. Your body and hormones change when you get into puberty and that could have been just a phase, but then it’s probably to late. So stop with your crap and educated yourself.

The five year olds you probably think you know may not be as brilliant and knowing as this soul. How about instead of questioning that, worry about your own children. And NEVER anyone else’s (idc if it’s your niece/nephew/granddaughter) cause what you THINK you know are just your silly thoughts and quite frankly, it’s none of your business (: Be real... you think these parents woke up one day and were like “let me convince my five year old he or she is trans or different for my enjoyment and so they can be tormented by ignorant assholes”. You’re all exhausting and really the ones who need help.
@@cosmic_rain9417 FYI- by 33 weeks of gestation (thats still a fetus incase you didn’t know), your brain and nervous system is fully functional and developed. So yes, this child at 18 months was consciously aware. Maybe it’s hard for others to see that cause your brain stopped developing at 33 weeks in the womb, but don’t hate on the ones who are doing what they want and loving it here and now in their skin. I would really love to know why this bothers people so much and why it even matters or why you all think you know everything.
I’m half and half on this. If this was my child I would be scared to document/share this with the world. Not because I’m ashamed, but because I want to protect my child from the horrible bullies.
But I also understand that you can’t always protect your kid. It’s just hard. And documenting and sharing an unknown territory can be very educational, even if viewers disagree. This family has a lot of love and courage.
Yeh, teaching children about sexuality at a young age is very loving. When I was 9 years old I didn't even understand what sexuality was because my parents didn't talk about it and I hardly watched TV, instead I played sports and did outdoor stuff like children should do. Parents now give children phones and let their kids watch tv shows( kids shows aren't like what they were, they have PC in them now to force a narrative). Children are very opened minded and the amount of social conditioning/engineering that has been done to promote this so-called inclusiveness is just a facade to actually create a state of confusion. When there is confusion there is division and the division is what is truth and what are lies. This has been going on for centuries. Now truth is being censored and ostracized. There is no hope for the next generation.

I do love that the parents are open and accepting of their child however, such a big decision should be made when the child understands the things that come with it. Once they become an adult, then see what they want to do.
Yes why not let them grow and see where it goes..I feel they are rushing things
It's called dysphoria

They’ll just know it.

What you "want to be" is different to what you are. The individual in this video doesn't "want to be" a girl. She IS a girl.
My sister when she was 3 told me "I wish I was a boy, I want to be a boy". That was just a phase and she has outgrown it now. That's not the same thing AT ALL as being transgender.
Good for you
@Thinking Out Loud Less than 1 percent of transgender people de-transition.
@@pcatma yes, but what if your parents had heard your sister say that she wanted to be a boy and took it to mean she was transgender and started to talk to her as though she was? Kids are easily influenced and at that age they don’t even know how they feel themselves (as they don’t have a developed brain yet) so they put a lot of stock into what their parents say.
So yes, it was a phase for your sister but if your parents had acted differently your sister may now be a “boy” despite not actually being trans. That’s why we shouldn’t talk to our kids about this at such a young age. Just because a boy plays dress up in skirts or a girl wants short hair and likes to play in the mud doesn’t mean they are nit their biological gender.

If this is what she is believing then there may be regret in the future. If not then good for you. But that "I like the other genders toys, clothes etc. more so I'm the other gender" is really dangerous in some cases.

I dressed like a boy when I was little, but I never was one. I'm still a girl and proud of it.
Ok fine? But that isnt everyone
There's a huge, fundamental difference between being transgender, and being 'gender non-conforming'. Being gender non-conforming means, for example, you are a girl who prefers 'boys' toys, 'boys' clothes, etc. You don't have interests that are seen as traditionally feminine or girly, but you are still a girl, you still know you are a girl in your heart and your mind. (This was me when I was a kid!)
Being transgender is VERY different. Being transgender, like the girl in the video, means you KNOW you are not the gender you were assigned at birth. You know that you are in a body which does not match up with what you feel in your mind and your heart.
I dressed as a boy and was one, I found out at his age back in the early 2000s but transitioned way later into my 20s, best decision, I really am a man and it feels better this way
Ok but nobody really asked lol
These dumbass parents obviously don't know what a phase is. I painted my nails in high school and wore mohawks. Now I'm just a normal everyday looking dad. My parents side eyed me alot. But never tried to make me something i wasn't. Unlike these parents.
Why was a parents be talking to her about transgender at seven years old I don’t understand that
As a child she was confused on who she was. they wanted to figure it out so they asked her if "this" is how she felt and she said "yes" and then they told her what it was. No problem 🤷♀️ I'm thankful that these parents are letting their child be who she is when parents don't accept or Force someone to do something that makes them unhappy it causes a lot of problems including suicide, mental issues, body dysphoria, anxiety, depression etc
@Eli Aurelio did commenting that make you feel better ?
I believe as a christian that parents should not allow this because it goes against the bible. That does not mean not to love the child but not like what he wants.

I'm a little confused on why they needed to explain to a young child what trans meant. Those kind of topics are a bit blurry for me when to bring it up. I think they should have let pronouns, etc. be left alone while letting her do what she wants like toys, clothes, etc. because those things don't dictate who you are.
they were fooled by the media.
Because she knows that she's a girl, but she doesn't know the term for it and they want her to know that its completely okay to be this way and that she's not the only one
As Maddie said, is not the same to act a certain way that wanting to be a girl. That's what they asked: do you feel like a girl? Do you want us to call you "she"? And she said yes. That is transexual. I feel like explaining the process what quite difficult, so it's a bit confusing.
And it is an issue to bring such topics up because?
also, she knew that the term "he" wasn't right for her. therefore she chose to identify with the female gender. the parents explained what it was called, I don't see an issue within that either.
if a kid asks a serious question you should be honest with them and have a discussion. it doesn't have to be harsh and adult but keeping the word a ~secret~ is like saying Dusty's ran away to grandpa's farm. maybe your parents made you blissfully delusional, but some people live in the real world🤗
The mother could only push out three boys and the third one is being told to go on hormones for liking girl clothes and toys? Definitely grooming.
Why can't the parents wait? Why can't they let their child dress up as a girl at home and be a boy in public? Let the child potential outgrow this. If they still feel this way in their teens then sure transition but not when ur 9!
John Johnson My cousin is trans, I might have an explanation that can help you 😊 If she has the mind of a girl then making her dress like a boy would be the same as your parents making you dress like a girl when you were a kid.

The best way I can relate to it and try to explain it (I'm not trans so this may not be my place) is if someone has ever misgendered you, it feels uncomfortable, gross, just *wrong*. So if you are born male but are trans and everyone referring to you as "he" and a boy and such feels *wrong*, and if people referring to you as "she" or a girl feels right, then you have the mind of a girl.
This child doesn't deserve this but....... The "Parents" deserve all the hate in the world. ALL OF IT!!!
When I was like 8 or 9 i loved Bratz dolls and My Little Pony but thank god my parents did not think I was transgender and have me transition. I think 9 is way too young. The flag with her face on it makes me think the parents played a big roll in this transition.....
Part of me is sentimental with the parents because I am not sure what I would do too, but 9 is way too young in my opinion. I definitely am against putting the child on hormone blockers at such a young age

And you know what I found interesting is what the dad stated " it will be abuse if I didn't let her play with girls things because she is a boy" does that mean every child liking a boy or girl toys make them that gender, kids are called kids for a reason and to be honest no one is satisfied with their gender to the fullest but that doenst mean they don't fit that gender :)

I agree with you, but there is a difference between sexual orientation (being straight) and gender identity ( identifying as a woman)
When I was 9 years old I was a "tomboy" I dressed like a boy, wanted my hair short, begged for a remote control car for my birthday instead of barbies, played with the boys and found girls boring.

Gender dysphoria is a clinical diagnosis where a person, child or adult, does not associate him/her self with their biological gender at birth. in some cases, the dysphoria is very deep-rooted and to press such a person into a mould which society envisages for that person is to make that person's life a misery and possibly suicidal. Hormone blockers can be used to delay puberty, but these may not be enough and surgical intervention may be necessary. Such decisions are not made lightly but are based on psychological, life-style and need, involving clinical professionals. The main drawback from clinical intervention is the subsequent inability of transitioned children to have their own children later on in life when they become adults. This factor might not be understood in younger children.
Nobody NEEDS hormone blockers and surgical intervention for gender dysphoria. That causes more problems than it fixes. How about we tell kids that you can like girly things or be a tom boy without having to mutilate your private parts.

"Activist Mom Manipulates Her Child Into Thinking She Has Dysmorphia"
How the hell do you know at 18 months old if a child is gender non conforming just because he didn't like boys toys.I had cars and a garage a castle and knights but it didn't mean I was a boy or wanted to be one ?Absolutely ridiculous.
Because they are garbage
I have seen several TH-camrs who are transferring back and having problems. They all said, a child shouldn't be allowed to make these choices. They need so much surgery now. Just a different perspective on this
True statement
That's true, but there are even more TH-camrs who have continued with hormone therapy and feel much better. All that matters currently is the child's happiness. I don't think she should have surgery any time soon, but the hormone therapy won't hurt anything.
Well said👏
They just should treat him. It’s because of harmones🤦🏽♀️
@@harrisindustries314 How so, when she stated clearly that she is a girl?
Kids are very vulnerable to suggestions. Liking certain toys, clothes, or colors does not mean trans. I’m an all girl mom with 3 daughters. Only one likes pink, bows, and girly things. The other two have no interest in girly things and I could get them anything they dreamed of and if it arrived pink they’d probably instantly hate it, but I guarantee they aren’t trans. One of my daughters has an oversized sweatshirt Billie Eilish clothing style but talks of wearing sneakers under her wedding dress that match her husbands. I feel that children should just be, and later on if they’re struggling ask them questions to help them figure things out but don’t suggest or rush into anything.
Children are nothing but suggestive, hence they're children. Someone needs to suggest to these parents that they actually tell their son he's a boy and that's great. And have that sucka eat his veggies 🥕 🥬....worst parent of the Year award goes to them and Hitler's dad
No like girly things doesn't mean your a girl but getting depressed because you have a boy body does
I don't know man, I think the parents are pushing it on him. Something is off with them.
It's just wrong to make kids go to this kind of transition. In that way humanity is just lost
"I can't force my kids to eat vegetables, let alone change their gender!"
Lady, if you can feed him lines, you can feed him some fuckin broccoli
My concern is that being a girl seems to be rooted in a rigid definition of girls toys girls clothes. That has absolutely nothing to do with being a girl.
Not to hate but I think the parents should wait till shes 16 years old or over because once you take the hormones and gender surgery she won't be able to have kids of her own and for sure once she's much older she will definitely feel different so I hope her parents wait till she's older before she takes hormones or change gender.
theyre not giving her hormones or surgery until shes old enough (hormones are probably around 15-16 and surgery is at 18 or after). they havent even given her puberty blockers yet, and they aren't even permanent.
Think about the pain this child
would have to go through during puberty, knowing that she is a woman yet still having to turn into a man because her feelings as a human being aren’t valid until she turns 16.. it makes no sense to me truly how anybody would think it’s right to force a child through puberty when it will cause nothing but dysphoria and self hatred, knowing that all they wanted was to be themselves from the very start
She is not on any type of hormones. She is simply socially transitioned which just means she dresses “girly” and goes by she her. Frankly when a child is that young it’s pretty clear that they’re truly transgender.
You say "no hate" and then immediately make statements that assume the parents don't know what they are doing or would hurt their child. While not hateful necessarily, they certainly are hurtful. It's also pretty presumptuous of you to make the statement that she will "definitely feel different" when she is older. You have no way of knowing that.
At this age, no child is taking hormones like estrogen or testosterone to produce gender changes. Why? Because they haven't reach puberty. Giving a child this young hormones their bodies will eventually produce if left alone would be inappropriate as well. As noted at about 4:44, at the very beginning of puberty, she may choose to take a puberty blocker. This will delay puberty without causing any permanent changes in her body. That will give her more time to make decisions about hormones. When her body is ready and she has worked with her physician, she may choose to take estrogen, but that is years away. Generally speaking, any surgeries, the most permanent of changes one can make, will wait until she is much, much older. Nothing that is being done now removes her ability to live as a girl, boy, fluid, or non-binary person later.
As for the inability to produce biological children goes, a) there are options that can be explored if that is important to her and b) none of us are promised fertility. There are so, so many people unable to produce biological children for a variety of reasons. Lots of them have children in other ways. Lack of fertility is not the same as not having children of your own. This only seems weird because a conscious decision may be made in the future, but even that decision is made by plenty of cis gender people every year. I know of at least three off hand who decided they did not want biological children and had surgeries to prevent just that.
Her parents are doing what is best for her being right now. They will continue to do so in the future, all while consulting with and following the advice of a physician skilled in these types of treatments. This child is healthy, happy, and most importantly, loved.
Legally, you can't have hormone replacement therapy until you're 16 or sex reassignment surgery until you're 18, plus you have to go to gender clinics and speak to multiple doctors and psychiatrists before medical transition, which is why less than 0.5% of trans people feel transition related regret. Every way she has transitioned so far (e.g changing pronouns and growing her hair) is completely reversible, in a few years she could start puberty blockers but they are also completely reversible.
I realized that no one is happy in this world...its like a hand full of people authentic left. Otherwise we living in the last episode of the twilight zone...

Did you stay up at night unable to fall asleep for years because all you wanted was to be a cat? Did you look at all the other little cats and feel terrible about yourself because you just couldn't see why you were different. Did looking in the mirror hurt because with all your heart, knew that there should be a cat staring back at you? Were you in constant psychological distress because you knew deep down, you truly were a cat? The psychological distress that trans kids isn't invalid because of their age. Children are able to conceptualise their gender at a very young age, and it's very different to playing pretend. A child knowing their trans identity is not comparable to a fleeting inconsequential desire to pretend.
@@jdwcreates4002 yes?
People over 30; do you remember even ONE "trans" kid growing up? Me neither.
I still haven't met an Albano person. Does that mean they don't really exist and people are lying???
1). You can't change your gender. You can chop off your spigot and take hormones but your chromosomes will always say you're male. 2). The term "transgender" didn't even exist until recently. 3). Of course there are people today who call themselves "trans." The degree to which you support and cheerlead them reflects the degree to which you're brainwashed by the satanic media.
Your child might want to wear girl clothes which is fine but to go ahead and changed her whole gender is straight up crazy. Children that age also wants have ice cream for breakfast but do we allow them to do that? No because they’re CHILDREN.
My son went through a phase of wanting to be ‘girly’ around 6 years old too.. but I told him ‘No.. because you’re a boy.’
As a single mom, I recognized he was mostly only exposed to female role-models (like mom, grandma, teachers, daycare workers, etc.) and I continued only buying him boy clothes and toys.
Surprisingly, he’s not currently growing up as gender-confused 10 year old. He appreciates being a boy, and expresses great interest in becoming a grown man some day. 🙂
However, I doubt that would be the case had I AND his dad (if he were around) ENCOURAGED those sassy behavioral whims by painting his room pink, & buying him skirts, barbies, & lip gloss.
People don’t accept biological males in female sports (logically) because of the unfair physical advantage.. and MOST people don’t want a relationship with a transgender person simply because IT ISN’T NATURAL.. so the future dating potential for transgender kids is either limited at best, if not founded on deceit.
Transgender kids shouldn’t be brought up under a false notion that they won’t face any serious obstacles throughout life as a result, or with a false sense that society is in ANYWAY obligated to continue expressing the same level of enthusiasm toward them as an adult, as their ‘parents’ have throughout their childhood.. because for the most part, they simply aren’t.
And that rude awakening & stark reality can often become overwhelmingly devastating for teens.. as the suicide rates unfortunately indicate.
And this isn’t ‘society’s’ fault either.. society is fulfilling their obligation with transgender employment, school acceptance, etc.. but you can NEVER criminalize someone for asserting the position ‘I respect that you’re transgender, but it just isn’t for me ..so I’d rather date someone else.’ or ‘I’d rather just hang out with this other person.’
THAT ALONE.. that personal rejection, which cannot be regulated.. is something any kid who’s being raised as transgender should be prepared for.. because like it or not.. that’s just the reality they will face. Acceptance on the surface, but often nothing more. 😥
Prayers for this kid. 🙏🏼

I love how you worded your comment and I agree with you 100%❤👍
I liked your comment.
You're judged because you put yourself on a public platform where random strangers can comment whatever they want. What did you expect?
She’s gonna be judged either way but if they let other family’s know that they aren’t alone at least it’s slightly better
“ I can’t force my kids to eat vegetables” it is your responsibility as a parent to raise your child with a healthy diet… and mind… you are failing.
How could one possibly know anything about their sexuality at 9 years old. It’s before puberty it’s before any real education or social interactions. You literally know nothing about life at that point which is fine because at that age you are just supposed to be having fun and learning
The brothers are so nice tho! I love their acceptance and understanding.
This child is AMAZING!!!! What a heart and what wisdom. In my mind, God made her this way to help teach the world compassion, acceptance and LOVE. She is exactly who's she is supposed to be and is spreading light to the world. Beautiful child. 🥰🥰🥰
There’s nothing more powerful to a child than having their parents love and accept them unconditionally. I’m not transgender but I was raised by a narcissistic parent who made sure that I felt “not enough,” flawed, and unloveable. In order to receive emotional breadcrumbs from my parents, I had to perform and people-please, as “love” was very conditional in my home. I can tell that the girl in this video feels fully seen, heard, understood, and loved by her parents. That is the greatest gift that parents can give to a child. I know that this child will grow up having self-love and healthy personal boundaries, which will be of great benefit to her. Kudos to these wise and empathic parents!
❤️❤️❤️
Gender “nonconforming” at 3 years old? That’s the issue there. Just because a kid likes blue more than pink, or unicorns and dolls more than fire trucks and dump trucks doesn’t mean they’re “gender noncomforming”. Toys and colors don’t have a gender.
Do you seriously think the parents never looked any deeper than colors and toys? This was not something they decided on-the-fly. It took YEARS.
For this girl to do anything more than a change of clothing, toys and name she will need to convince multiple doctors and therapists who are trained to spot the trans children and abused children.
I think you’re a beautiful family accepting your daughter for who she is.
I’m glad she has parents & brothers who love, understand & protects her.

Child abuse.
yep
I agree
You're damn right, these parents need to be sent to court
If they forced it on her while they're having two older boys... shouldn't they ALL had been "forced" to be trans? It was HER choice, and her parents are dealing with it like any good parents should, by loving their kids, supporting and accepting them as they are... not forcing them anyhow to be something that they aren't.
So if my child wants to drink and do drugs am I going to allow that ? At some point the father has to step in and take charge. This family needs a reality check. How is a 9 year old boy going to decide what gender he is when he doesn’t even know what job he wants to be when he’s older ? How about instead of children trying to change their gender, we focus on building our children up and teaching them life skills, instead of giving them the “ok” to mutilate themselves and make life altering decisions. I pray for this child and hope he doesn’t suffer long term trauma because what his parents are doing should be considered child abuse.
Victor, You have to realize that a child is not to make decisions with the guidance of parents.
The blame will entirely be on the parents...Before God's eyes, the parents should guide the children teach them that it's a sin to alter His creation.

“Not letting her be who she is.” Ummmm He’s a boy. That’s who he is.
No she is a girl
I honestly wish you would let these kids grow up first and if that’s what they want to do when they are grown/18 and educated cause just maybe they might have a change of mind. And once you lose it you can’t get it back. Education and growth. Then you let the CHILD do what they believe in and want for their life.
Yes, What I’m saying.
I totally agree
If you do this the children live all their childhood in a wrong identity. Plus, the earlier you start hormone treatment the more the person will look like their true gender as an adult. Of course you have to wait a bit to make sure it's not a phase. With this girl that's already very clear.

when I was a kid I always wanted to be a boy, I feel that it was influenced because I am the only girl in my family and I have two brothers. I even once went to the prize section in a certain competition and replaced the doll I won with a toy car. During my teenage years, I have questioned myself whether I'm a boy or a girl. It happened more often after I got to know about the LGBTQ people. Now as a grown-up I know I was just a tomboy. Usually, children grow out of their gender dysphoria in time by waiting and reasoning or with "help from a therapist or psychologist. I feel like transition affirmative therapies inflict lasting harm to the child by experimenting on the child.
For children her age, the only transition they do is using a different name and pronouns, buying new clothes, cutting/growing out hair, and possibly hormone blockers (which are 100% reversible). Not that they have to do all those things, of course. But if the kid realizes they are not trans, no permanent changes have been made and they can continue on their life as their assigned gender at birth. It just makes it so much easier to transition later on, if they decide to, when their transition has started before puberty. And it can save the trans individual from a lot of gender dysphoria.
They ought to be judged. A boy can wear pink & play with girly toys. That doesn't make him a girl.
It's the child's choice. If they feel girly or they feel like a boy. Let them be who they want!! They shouldn't be judged for this
If they feel like it I will make them un feel like it GET OUT 9 year old kid from the internet
What defines feeling girly? Liking dresses? Wearing makeup? If a girl likes stereotypically masculine activities she’s considered a tomboy but why is it if a boy likes stereotypically feminine things he’s transgender?

I suggest you all check out the videos of NUMEROUS of children who have grown up and do NOT want to be trans. There's a big lawsuit going on right now against parents and doctors for allowing this foolishness. One girl was allowed to transition, now she cant have children and her vocal changes are irreversible.
I hope everyone who sees this does so with an open mind. All I see here is parents who love a child, who let their child be who she is. Listen to Dempsey. Every child deserves to be loved for who they are. People who spew judgemental comments just really don't know. I hope "meeting" Dempsey helps change their minds. Dempsey is in the driver's seat. Her parents support her unconditionally. That kind of parenting saves lives.
I'm against what they're doing. And although you said, "People who spew judgement just don't really know," I DO know. My sister is trans, and my brother-in-law. They got a divorce and they're both changing their sex. This leaves my 4 year old nephew in disarray and literally in need of therapy. It also effects my parents who are past their 60's and emotional distraught and having to help take care of my nephew while his parents focus on their new genders. I'm not spewing judgement, I'm living it and responding to the damage being done. You're taking the easiest moral high ground, "let people be who they think they are." Life isn't black and white, there's nuance and middle ground.
I wish your nephew well. Therapy is probably a good idea, but people shouldn't deny their true selves because it makes people uncomfortable. divorce is hard, transition can be difficult. But for a lot of these kids it also saves lives. Please take my comment for what it's worth: I don't wish any pain on anyone and I'm sorry your family has been through it. But it terms of inflicting the least amount of pain, you're right that it isn't black and white. However, when a kid tells you who they are, allowing them the unconditional love and support is, to me, the right thing that will ease difficulties.
@Olivia Hinebaugh.....Very well said. I commented above, now read yours and couldn´t agree more.
Who allows their child or children to have an exact consisting adult making choice of that age anyhow and yet the (CPS) Child Protective Services should take that little away from these disqualified parents .

I think we grow to appreciate who we are i mean the gender we are born as cos I remember I really wanted to be a boy in the early stages of my life and from how I remember it, I would have been made to transition if I was born to a society that supports those stuffs..sitting here and reminiscing makes me realize that , that would have been the biggest mistake of my life cos i absolutely love being a girl and I just can't imagine how wonderful motherhood and womanhood in general will be.
Omg same I think most girls(not all girls) will experience wanting to be a boy, I did once bit I didn't dress as one. Now I am much older I am more of a tomboy. But I would never think of Turing into a boy tho
I still want to be a boy sometimes but I jist use a strapon with a fine female and im good for a couple weeks lol, im so glad I never got rid of my lady parts but to each is own, she might decide she wants to be a boy again who knows its just crazy
Love 💕 and accept yourself it's a wonderful thing 🤷
Well that's your personal experience, it's not the same for everyone
Your experience is not universal and saying "born in society that supports this stuff" really says a lot, and it's not good. Support is not a bad thing. I was always boyish, I was questioning my gender identity since when I was a kid. I knew of trans people and educated myself about them almost daily. Guess what? Didn't once think to transition. I thought about what testosterone would do to my body and decided it's not for me. I still question my gender identity to this day. I wanted a binder then, I still want one now. I still want to experiment with more masc styles and trying to figure out how to look like that on certain days.
