Personally I believe that parents ARE mainly to blame for confused children. We are all on a bell curve of masculinity/femininity. A young child of three has no notion of being different to the norm unless adults intervene and put ideas into their head.

May I ask though, what is a transgender child?
How does a small child know that they are in the wrong body? What does a four year old know about sex and gender? Where does that come from?

An excellent article on what it is like to be the parent of a trans child.

One of the most worrying bits in the article is about children being removed from the family home, under the assumption that the parents has encouraged the children into this path.
