I just watched a short documentary that was on 20/20 about transgendered children diagnosed with GID. I found this not only informational, but insightful and personal. I think we can really relate and get a better picture of how the children feel versus what the DSM or scholarly articles "define" them as. I really like that the parents were very supportive of each of their children's decision at a very early stage of their coming out. I think that there was a deeper understanding that these children are not gay per se but they are actually biologically in the wrong bodies. I admire the strength and perseverance of the children and I think that it was a very good watch!
