There's no need for that. At all. She's supporting her child.
I don’t think it’s very supportive to encourage a (likely gay) young boy to believe they’re a girl.
At all. I actually think it’s incredibly damaging and homophobic, and the Cass Review supports the notion that affirmation is not a good idea.
Emma is the parent and has a responsibility to raise her children in a safe environment. Not to support everything her children do.
And certainly not to announce to millions on Instagram that her son is now her daughter. Now that the entire world knows, she has made it very, very difficult for her 13 year old to change their mind if they so wish.
I believe when younger she was allowing her child to play and dress however they wanted. Of course this is fine and should be encouraged. But that’s not the same as referring to them as a girl.
I’m not going to reply to anything else on this topic as it always derails the thread, but I can’t believe that after everything, people are still shouting “be kind”. People need to speak up against this, unless they want to be complicit.
