It's never occurred to me to seek out a specialist or that there might be anything wrong. She's just a tomboy and she's figuring out gender and boy/girl differences.

I'm just mentioning this to provide the opposite scenario, and bring up the possibility that your friends might be uncomfortable because it's less socially acceptable for a boy to play with "girl" toys than for a girl to play with "boy" toys.

Ah, but I don't think we can deny that society looks more approvingly on tomboys than it does on boys who are too feminine, can we? It's a sad reality but all too true. It doesn't sound like OP's friends are uncomfortable at all, only seeking advice on how to help their child get along in a society that is ignorant and judgmental of boys like this. I call that good parenting - which it sounds like you would recognize having allowed your daughter to be who she is.

That's really sad because there are real children who are born one sex, but identify completely with the other sex. Look up "gender dysphoria." They feel there some kind of mistake in their sex assignment. Some children as young as age six have gone so far as to attempt to mutilate themselves to become the other sex. It's not a "choice" or a phase or a result of improper influences. It's just who they are.

It's a sin and you deal with it and pretend its not there. Fake it . I would not want my child to burn in hell. This life is a stepping stone to a much greater world called heaven. I would be heartbroken if my child didn't go because I allowed them to be gay or transgender.

And yes I know what it is my cousin has decided to become a girl, he is transgender.

Okay you can go away now, because your comments are in no way helpful to OP. Believe feel what you want, but you are trolling to stir up trouble. Thanks for playing, now stop.

Good thing Jesus died for our sins, right? No chance of burning in hell, now, even if you turn out to be a hateful bitch like you.

Yes he died for our sins. But that is no free pass. We have to earn our way there. And most beds in heaven are already taken. Chances are most humans living now probably 90-99% will burn in hell. That's why we need to stop producing children. Why have something that is doomed from the start. Knowing your child will burn forever is sickening but know one seems to care everyone is selfish.

Seriously people, stop feeding the troll. She is cuckoo and needs to go away.

All the boy needs is parents who love him no matter what. He might be gay. He might be transgender. He might just be a boy playing with 'girl' toys...there really aren't any girl toys by the way, just a messed up society that thinks boys playing with dolls is out of the norm.

I find it so odd that someone would want a diagnosis, support group or specialist for something so natural as a child discovering their gender (whichever gender it turns out to be). Once the child starts voicing something like "Mom, I really want to be a girl.", THAT'S the point when I'd start looking for someone to help my CHILD (not me!!!) to figure out what he really wants. But he is 4 and it completely natural for young children to explore everything, even such things most adults consider stereotypical part of the opposite gender.

Maybe this child is saying he wants to be a girl. Maybe he is saying he doesn't want to be a boy. Maybe it's all day everyday. The parents sounded like they were looking for guidance is all. It sounded like they love and accept him.

I don't know if you are a troll-- possibly the same one who started the Janney thread?-- but what is a sin about being transgendered?

This is why pre-teens and teens are killing themselves. Lack of unconditional love from their parents.

+1,000,000,000.

This person sounds like a HORRIBLE parent, & I feel very sorry for your children.
