Mother allows her six-year-old son to live as a girl
Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
At what age can your child start making decisions for themselves, including those involving their gender?
Children are great imitators, and those of the 21st century are particularly advanced in their thoughts and actions. But at what age can children decide which gender to follow?
Tracy, who was born as James, is a six-year-old transgender boy who lives his life as a little girl.
According to Metro, Tracy's mom, Amanda Kafton, says that Tracy always wanted to be a girl.
"She wanted to be called by a specific name, and she chose Tracy, which was her middle name. After that, she was no longer James anymore, she just wanted to be Tracy. She just told me in a serious voice that she was a girl, and she was always going to be a girl," Kafton said.
Tracy dresses and emulates the characteristics of a girl. You wouldn't even believe that she is actually a boy.

Do you think this mother is wrong for allowing her child to make up his mind at such a young age or is what she is doing forward thinking?
