Ah right, I had only read the story in the OP.

I dont think wanting to dress as a boy means the child actually wants to be a boy at all. I hated dresses and such and I didnt turn out to be transgendered. On the other hand, my brother liked to dress up in my grandmothers clothes..he hasnt turned out to be trans either, or a crossdresser. Kids will be kids. I think its ridiculous to 'diagnose' a 6 year old as transgender, I really do. I want to know why the parents would even consider taking the child to a psychiatrist at that age to begin with tbh
