[QUOTE="witzend, post: 669596, member: 99"] Legally and for insurance purposes, that is required. If this person was born in a man's body and believes she is a woman and is transitioning into a woman's body, and wants to play softball (or any other sport) the choice is to join a co-ed team or join a woman's team. She can't be one thing one day and another on another day. She's a woman in her head and in her life and then she can become a woman in her body as well. If she is playing on the men's league, there's no way a doctor will perform the surgery let alone an insurance company will pay for it. (There's no pill for it. There's gender reassignment surgery.) Honestly, this is a dangerous hot potato you are dealing with here. If other parents want to talk, you need to be sure that you exit those conversations as soon as you can and make sure that everyone knows that you feel it's none of your business. She believes she is a woman, her doctor agrees with her. The courts side with her. She is a woman. Give her and her child the respect and dignity they deserve by leaving her "status" out of the equation. Deal with her the same way you would any other parent. And [I]stay out of the gossip.[/I] You could literally lose everything. [/QUOTE]
