Lucky the child is in a public school. You wouldn't think so, but they're much better off depending on the kind of programs that are available at the district level for alternative sexuality children.

I also have to wonder if a 9 year old can be self-aware enough to come to this decision on their own. I have to wonder if they have been pushed in this direction by overzealous parents or therapist.
I kissed a t-girl and I liked it
I hope my girlfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong......it felt so right
.......Well, I can dream, can't I?

Anyway, when it comes to this, for those who honestly are addressing the situation, I bring this question to you:
How many of the girls here knew they were TS at such a young age?
And, for the rest of the world, how many guys went through a phase where they thought they were a girl?
I rest my case.
It is people like the "doctor" who are the reason why girls have to go through the hell they go through today. They act like a legitimate expert (which they are not) of something, people believe them and they're left in the dark ages.
There is no reason why, in 2008, children cannot be diagnosed and monitored for GID prior to puberty, analyzed by a large PANEL of psychological experts, then given the same standards of care (or even more stringent, tack a year or two more on, fine), then are given HRT (covered by health insurance) and later SRS (covered by health insurance) so they can be able to correct their bodies in the best way so that they can live to as close to as normal of a life as they can, as they deserve to, being the women they are.
And, of course, for the 1% or whatever that happen to have some anomaly or confusion about it (or as per that horrible argument given above, of the parents influencing it), the board of psychologists would be able to easily identify it. Also, remember that the RARE examples of people regretting SRS were virtually 100% done without their choice or outside the Standards of Care.
Personally, I think this example is normal and has existed forever. Only now we have transsexuality in the media and further acceptance of individuals so that people are more comfortable with coming out of the closet earlier.

This is for anyone who didn't see it, it's from ABC's 20/20 "My Secret Self".

I also disagree that this child is capable of making a decision on gender at 9 years old. Gender identity and gender roles are not something we are born with, they are learned behaviors. I feel that one came eventually come to realize that their gender identity does not match there genetic sex. On the other hand who am I to say that this child doesn't already know their own identity. I just feel that a 9 year old isn't developed enough to make this decision.
