Transgender Kids: Boys Will Be Girls

If your child longed to be the opposite sex, would you let him or her "switch teams"?

Congratulations: It's a girl! Well, at least that's what you thought you had. For parents of transgender children, not everything is what it seems. Some children are wracked with what's called a "gender-identity disorder" and are profoundly depressed and can even become suicidal if they are not allowed to express themselves as the opposite sex.
Tina Simms had a difficult decision to make: Should she allow her son, Brandon, to live his life as girl? After all, Brandon had expressed a desire to be a "she" instead of a "he" almost as soon as he could talk.
