A six-year-old boy who has been told that he cannot use the girls’ restroom at his elementary school is being discriminated against, because he is transgender, an LGBT advocacy group claims in a civil rights complaint, according to a report in a Colorado Springs newspaper, The Gazette.
Coy Mathis’ mother said her son has lived as a girl, including dressing in girls’ clothing, using the girls’ bathroom at school and having teachers refer to her as a girl.
“We socially transitioned her to a girl, which at that age means merely changing pronouns and growing her hair out,” Kathryn Mathis told The Gazette. “No medicines.”
Once Coy was denied access to the girls’ restroom at school, the parents decided on home schooling so Coy would not face “bullying and harassment.” …

I read this and weep, I have no idea how to fit into this world any longer.
These “parents” should be thrown in jail and the child sent to a foster home. This is evil, plain and simple.
I wonder how parents can be so weak that they permit a little boy, still in diapers (when they allowed him to make playing make-believe a permanent choice), to make such a major decision. Having had children who decided to be a dog (or worse - a democrat!), I know that it’s quite easy to lead kids to better choices and let them feel like it is their decision. It may have been the easiest option at the moment when they let it happen, but good parenting is a whole lot less work in the long run than allowing a toddler to make adult decisions, especial bad adult decisions.
Does s/he want to be a Lumberjack when s/he gets older?
Oh, don’t be Coy!
I’m a lumberjack and I’m OK.
I feel the boy. There is a place for bullying and harassment in the world though. In this case, the parents need a good dose to become normal.
I can only guess that the mother wears the pants in the family, and if there is a father he is a sorry excuse of a man. I wouldn't surprise me that the mother is a dike and hates all men.
It is also sick that some teachers supported this entire situation. At least the school administration did the right thing.
This is child abuse. The teachers that supported this should be immediately fired and be banned from teaching ever again.
The teachers union that would support the teachers should be forced to disband.
I won't mention what I think should happen to the mother.
They are mistaken if they think girls are immune from bullying and harassment. I find the implication that this child is more endangered from boys than girls to be counter productive to their argument.
ARRRHHHG!!!someone bred Chris Christie with Helen Thomas!
Try to imagine what these parents have done to this child, then ask why Elton John and his homo friend were allowed to adopt 2 little boys. Nothing but sex offenders allowed to own and use children.
you may want to rescind that 1st sentence...lol.
Gender is a social construct, and therefore changeable. Or doesn’t anyone ever wonder why the word “sex” has been replaced by “gender”?
Orwell warned us against those who seize control of language. This poor boy is suffering the consequencse of our lazy acquiescence.
Is that Miss Piggy?
I can’t even imagine how things can get anymore insane than this.
Maybe we should just give the Norks permission to nuke us?!

Where is Coy's dad?? if he let Coy's mom make Coy into a girl...he must not be the sperm donor because he doesn't have any BALLS!!
Humanity will extinct within 100 years if this continues. Crap like this has never existed before. Not even in the ancient near east.
