This is from the excellent 20/20 documentary "My Secret Self" about young transgender children and the brave parents who are standing up for them. Bravo! (Music: Flutter ~ Eleventh Dream Day from the 1994 Album Ursa Major)

  • you are so ignorant joyp0503. It is people like you that are the reason these children have dead eyes. Being ridiculed almost everyday by the world; it kills part of you. These children are so brave to stick up for what they believe and feel even though most of the world disagrees. Kudos to them and shame on you for falling in with the crowd that belittles transgender, homosexual, bi-sexual etc people. We are all our own, and we can choose what we wish to do with our lives.

  • It's not so simple as that; there's hard evidence that gender (as opposed to sex) is "hardwired" in our minds. See the case of a boy whose penis was accidentally burned during circumcision. They decided to remove it and raise the baby as a girl. But despite everything he never accepted it, became suicidal. The same thing happens to transgender kids who get forced the other way. It's not to say that we should force them either way but only they can decide who they are for themselves.

    How do you know it is? No one knows so don't question it.

  • @bibleeana

    You don't have a heart. My mom has tried to make me be a girl my whole life and she guided me right and everything but I'm still a FTM.

  • @A7XGUNSLINGER

    No one cares what you think.

  • @0wn3g3t1m3

    Why would a parent make their child believe they are something they are not? You don't understand this and you never will so shut up.

  • @joyp0503

    I like playing with dolls and I don't like guy stuff at all but I still feel like I am a boy. What you like has nothing to do with your gender.

  • @Jomama5144

    If they force their child to be a boy then she will hate them and be very depressed for the rest of her life. My therapist told me that there is nothing wrong with me being Transgender. Trust me you do not force anyone to be who they are not.

  • @Jomama5144

    I love myself very much and I don't care about what society thinks is right, I cannot be a female, I have tried but it doesn't work and when I identify myself as male it feels more natural to me, it has nothing to do with values. My only values are to be myself and serve god and nothing else.

  • @Saggitarius88

    Some people do grow out of it and some people don't. I'm a 16 year old FTM and I'm going to make sure I won't grow out of it before I do anything to my body.

  • @loraly53

    These children are just doing what feels best for them, everyone is selfish at some point so you're comment is just stupid.
