[quote=Anonymous]Well, my four year old thought she'd grow up and marry daddy. When she found out that's not how it works, she decided she would marry her sister. I also remember thinking I'd marry my brother. I once tried to breastfeed my baby sister. Kids do and say weird things. They're trying to make sense of the world and figure out which roles they'll be playing as they progress in it. In your son's case, I'd ask why he wants to be a girl and if he's able to article something specific that he'd like to do, that he thinks boys can't do, and if it's reasonable then I'd encourage him to do that thing anyway. He doesn't have to be constrained by his boy-ness. [/quote]
