What would you do if you had a child born a certain sex who insisted on believing they were another?
Like a girl born with all girl parts who believed she was a boy and thus wanted to be dressed and act like a boy in every way?
Would you cater to this or help them in another way like with counseling?
I've heard of them and seen them before what's the general opinion? What does the Church teach?
Is being transgendered a mental illness?
I have seen some of these kids whose parents cater to them wanting to dress like in girls clothes or boys clothes and all that and I wonder "what happens when puberty hits?"
These kids might not have it hard as little kids but when they grow boobs or beards and obvious male or female features its gonna make life hard. What are the parents going to do?
I don't think catering to this is a healthy approach. I would assume taking the kids to therapy and helping them understand what they have and why it is beautiful would be the best approach. But all of my kids are normal healthy minded children so I can't say how people should react to children with a mental disorder.
