When you scratch beneath the surface of this story, it’s obvious what’s happened to this poor child. The parents are attention-seekers of the worst kind: there’s a CNN film and a website and a book and press releases and a media section on the mother’s website and another website to prove it. This is a business for the parents: they’re monetizing their child’s gender change. The only thing missing from their website is a discount coupon for puberty blockers.
In other words, it’s child abuse — fueled by money and fame.
