She grew out of it.
The child as been given the option to not use the male toilets. Why the parents are pushing and pushing when it would make a lot of other people feel uncomfortable to give into their wishes is questionable...
Obviously there is the chance that the child actually is transgendered, but from the info we have, it seems to be more the parents.

..I think they have quite a few daughters Vicky..it's a large family and Coy is a twin, I think...but when I first heard this story, I watched some vids of interviews with the parents and the main thing that they kept stressing was how their child dressed and that Coy wasn't happy going out in male clothes..?..but I had two older brothers and was a complete 'tomboy' as a child and I hated wearing a dress..my mum used to make mw wear one on Sundays for church and I couldn't wait to get home to change into jeans...I would never have worn female clothes unless forced to...so there must be something more to it in their minds, yet I can't see any articles or interviews where they comment on anything else..it's confusing...
