Six-year-old transgender child tried to pull off her penis to become a little girl[/B]
[Transgender girl, 6, 'tried to tear off her penis' and refused to drink water at school so she wouldn't have to use the boys' toilets... and has now changed her name from Baylin to Briella. A six-year-old transgender child tried to pull off her penis and refused to drink water at school to avoid using the boy's toilets in a desperate attempt to become a little girl.
Briella Carmichael was born a boy but she has been identifying as a girl since she was a toddler.
The year one student from Melbourne was diagnosed with gender dysphoria last September after her parents, Scotty and Kirra, sought help when their son Baylin said he wanted to live as a girl.
Her parents and staff at Cranbourne South Primary School, in Melbourne's east, helped Baylin make the change to Briella and organised for the Safe Schools program to come in, which helps teach students about their gay, transgender and gender-diverse peers.
'Before she didn't have one friend because Baylin was shy, withdrawn and sad. Now she’s Briella she is invited places, she’s in the girl group and she’s got best friend necklaces.
'She has attitude just like every little girl... I find her dancing in her room with a hairbrush. She is a different kid.'
Mrs Carmichael said the next step will be legally changing her daughter's name to Briella, but admitted it would be a difficult step.
