HIGHLANDS RANCH – The issue of being transgender usually pops up with students in high school. However, a 2nd grade boy wants to dress as a girl and wants teachers and students to address him with a girl's name.

"As a public school system, our calling is to educate all kids no matter where they come from, what their background is, beliefs, values, it doesn't matter," said Whei Wong, Douglas County Schools spokesperson.

Wong says the staff at one of Douglas County's schools is preparing to accommodate the student and answer questions other students might have. In order to protect the child as much as possible, 9NEWS has chosen not to reveal his school or other names that might identify the child.

The transgender issue "pops up"? The spokesperson for the district is "Whei Wong"?

Threaten the boy's "parents" with forced sterilization if they don't stop putting ideas like this into that CHILD'S mind. And tell the boy that transgenderism is both unnatural and unholy.

That should about take care of it.

That said, I don't think any kid should be reared differently from his or her biological gender, unless the kid has an extra X or Y chromosome due to Klinefelter's syndrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klinefelter's_syndrome) or a something similar. Upon reaching adulthood, however, if he or she can convince a competent shrink that he or she is not a man or woman (as the case may be), then the decision whether to take hormone treatments and/or undergo sex-reassignment surgery can be made.
