It wasn't an issue. At least not for Rule.
"I grew up in a family with gay members and, now, a couple of transgender members," Rule explained. "It wasn't a struggle to accept (my son) for the simple fact that it saved my child's life."
Rule's son, Elias Sebastian DeLeon, 17, says he has always felt more comfortable as a male, though he was born female.
"Ever since I can remember I've just always identified as a boy," the teenager Yuba City honors student explained.
