Emma figures it out

Emma is my son's 12 year old granddaughter. She was identified as being transgendered a year ago and counselors at the school have been helping her transition as a transboy. Her new name is Edward. The pressure almost drove this poor kid to suicide. She really has had more misery in her young life than most. She would come to Gramma and Grampy so she could just be a girl in peace. The issue came to a painful head when her counselor said that she could have a double mastectomy now that she was developing breasts. They might not be big, but Emma is inordinately proud of her new chest and wants to know how long it will be before she gets cleavage.

At her last visit the family was watching the old movie Victor Victoria, about a female singer pretending to be a man impersonating a female singer. It changed Emma's life. She returned to school as a transboy identifying as a girl named Emma. So far, so good.

AWESOME. ECB.

That's unbelievable...her 'school' counselor is telling her this?? These people are meddling in way more than they should be setting dangerous precedence.

So her Parents? were okay with this insanity??

you've spoken about this kid off and on if i remember correctly.  Does she say anything to you about what she's going through? I can't think of anyone more suitable than you to give them all a hard dose of reality.

Emma has a very caring dad and Step mom and two half sisters. Failure to give support to a transgender child could lead to the loss of all the girls. These are not well educated or sophisticated people. Emma is an exceptionally well adjusted and secure young lady. To keep the peace in school she has been playing along and taking it day by day. The week ends and vacation days she come here. The darn problem is, when she wants to do girl things like wear lipstick and nail polish the school thinks Emma is being forced into it.

Now she tells people she is a boy who identifies as a girl and her pronouns are she her. Heads may explode but no one can accuse anyone of not being sensitive to her status. The family is wanting to move to Texas away from the crazy.

These two girls have had nothing but misery in their entire lives. Jazz the other grand girl is in an institution and may never be able to get out. It's heartbreaking. It really is.

She says she wants to be the quiet kid. I stay out of this. The school could call children's services in a hot minute.

Good luck with it.
Sorry to hear about all that.

There is a Tranny in our Yoga group, it must be a tough like.
Life is hard enough anyway.

Offer her a safe harbour in the storm.

What a mess Katz.  I hope the family can get out of there.

I hope so too. As long as they stay away from Austin the schools should be good.

Leaving only Jazz to worry about. I fear she will never recover. May the basted rot in prison.

Well, I won't be happy until at least three of Pelosi's kids have titties sewn to their heads where their ears should be. Then when ... oh, you know the rest.

What they need to do is take down these rotten sociology departments and fire the professors.

Frankly, I don't believe one word of your post. Sorry.
