ESSEX, March 5, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) - Jill Recknell is mourning the loss of her grandson, despite the fact that he is alive and well. It’s just that, according to five-year-old Zach Avery and his parents, he’s not her grandson anymore. He’s her granddaughter.
Zach’s family, who live in England, says that he was a normal boy up until last year, when he became obsessed with the cartoon character Dora the Explorer and started dressing in girl’s clothing.
“He just turned round to me one day and said, ‘Mummy, I’m a girl,’” Theresa Avery, Zach’s mother, told the Daily Mail, when the family went public last month with Zach’s story. “I assumed he was just going through a phase and left it at that. But then it got serious and he would become upset if anyone referred to him as a boy.”
After a psychologist diagnosed him with “Gender Identity Disorder,” the family has asked everyone to treat him as a girl.
Theresa and her husband Darren say Zach’s school has been “really supportive.” They have told his fellow classmates that their son has the body of a boy, but the brain of a girl. The school created gender-neutral lavatories for him, and the family hopes he will be able to use the staff toilets when he gets older.
But Recknell, Zach’s maternal grandmother, says she cannot get on board.
“I’d rather see him kicking a football than parading in a pink dress,” she told People. “He was born a boy. It says so on his birth certificate.”
The situation, she says, has made many of the normally joyous aspects of being a grandparent painful for her.
“Grandmothers love seeing photos of their grandchildren growing up but I could never bear to look at a picture of Zach pushing a pram or cuddling a Barbie,” Recknell told the news service.
Gift-giving occasions are particularly difficult, she confided: “I could never bring myself to send a doll or girl’s clothing – it would seem so wrong.”
“The whole situation is heartbreaking for me to be honest and has left me in tears,” added the grandmother of seven.
Recknell is not the only family member with reservations. Her son, Jay, says that his nephew’s transformation has divided the family and raised concerns about Zach’s parent’s decision to go public.
According to the Daily Mail, the Averys are now negotiating with a tabloid newspaper to sell Zach’s story to them.
Zach’s story comes amidst reports that the number of young children being labeled “transgendered” is on the rise, with clinics even catering to such children and providing “treatment” that can involve being administered puberty-blocking drugs to stop the onset of puberty, and subsequent “hormone therapy” to help the child look like the opposite sex.
In one famous case reported on last year, a seven-year-old boy who now says he is a girl was allowed to join the Girl Scouts.
Your post just made me think of something. I was born with a genetic disorder and at 3 had cancer near my groin, this was in 88, if it were 58 the doctor propbably would have taken the opportunity to do a vasectomy and not tell anyone.
Because it is Marxist ideology to destroy all differences—egalitarianism. In doing so—they destroy Logic and Reason (Natural Law Theory).
They need to destroy the Laws of Nature so they can redefine their utopian human beings—make biology worthless, so the State is where loyalty lies—and make men and women interchangeable, so children will become objects for the State to shape (they kill the maternal instinct in women with abortion—training to kill one’s own offspring) and create identity politics to make each group hate the others, etc. (even Mothers v. kids and men).
Of course, by removing all humanity from man and creating base animals who trump emotion over intellect it collapses society—by destroying trust between all groups including children and parents. That is what their aim is. All Marxists states have no trust—even in families. Chambers writes about this in “Witness”—how there is constant fear because of destruction of families and no hope (God).
It is all about base urges and teaching children to believe in an artificial reality and no God—using BF Skinner technique. MSM and schools are Marxist brainwashing tools and parents have bought into the Big Lie-—Good is Evil and Evil is Good and those concepts have to be taught when a child is forming worldview. Lenin created Day Cares so he could form Marxist worldview in one generation.
“Why argue with natural selection?
Perhaps this just evolution cleaning the gene pool?”
If this is true then they are doing it to the wrong person. They should do it to the parents and not the child. The kid does not know any better. The parents are stupid and duped into the homo agenda.
It sounds like he has Crappy Liberal Parents Disorder to me. Poor Granny. I feel for her. She's normal, but the left in that country including her own child will try to wear her down and make her feel like she's abnormal for not accepting this idiocy.
I just have two words to say then it comes to the muslims and this: bacha bazi. Other than that the muzzies may stfu!

You really like these kinds of stories, don’t you?
To think, if these nuts were my parents, I could have had Uncle Happy cut off because I liked to push the dog in my sisters doll carriage when I was 5 is frightening.
Watching liberals in actions is like watching a train wreck. No matter how hard one tries, one just can’t seem to turn away.
