Wren Kauffman came into the world as a little girl named Renna, more than two years ago; he started living life as a boy.

It was a steep learning curve for his family, who noticed their young daughter's odd requests to become a boy as she got older – finally, when she was 9, she told her parents that she felt as if she was living in the wrong body.

A short time later, Renna became Wren, and the clothes and pronouns changed.

Now Wren is 11-years-old, and in Grade 6 at Victoria School for the Arts – and provided a challenge his school was more than willing to handle.
