Yes, I have children.
The more I think about this situation, it’s starting to become more clear to me.
Parents have triplets. Two boys, girl. They also have two other children (the article doesn’t say whether older or younger).
Children always compete for attention. This is especially true in families with 5 kids, and it’s especially true for triplets.
Lily (girl triplet) contracts meningitis at 4 months, and becomes disabled. So among the triplets, you have Lily, Max, and Coy.
From the photo, it looks like Max may be the taller triplet.
So who gets all the attention? Lily, the special-needs girl. Who’s in the middle wanting attention? Coy. How does Coy get attention? Well, maybe if Coy is a girl like Lily, he will get more attention, too.
Enter doctors and psychologists. Yes, if Coy is saying he’s a girl, then he must have that identity. You will damage him if you don’t play along. Yes, we’re experts. That will be $495, please.
Sound about like the scenario we have?
