I know a 13-14 year old girl driven across state lines to have a radical mastectomy. She thinks she’s a boy. Her parents are nuts.

She now still looks and acts exactly like a tiny little 90 lb. 12 year old girl - sans boobs.

Lord have mercy.

Oh, that is horrible. That poor child. How can people be so cruel and what kind of doctor would agree to do this?

I also know a female — childhood friend of my daughter — who decided in seventh or eighth grade she wanted to be a boy.

Her parents were going through an acrimonious divorce at the time.

As a child, she was quite intelligent, but somewhat "hyper."

Now she talks like a boy, with a spooky, low-pitch voice. I don't know if she's having hormone treatments, but it's possible.
