Quote of the Day: “I’m not transgender. I. Am. A. Boy,” says 5-year-old Tyler, who
born a girlwas designated female at birth. He first insisted he was a boy at the age of 2, and eventually was diagnosed with gender identity disorder.Now, his parents allow him to present himself as a boy, and Tyler’s mom doesn’t think he’s going through a phase (though doctors say many children with gender identity disorder eventually switch back to their biological gender). “I just want my child to be happy,” she says.
Don’t miss the video and pic gallery that help tell Tyler’s story.
