They think this will boost his confidence? It's a nice idea but wait until he gets to school, unfortunately he'll probably be subjected to a world of bullying.

What in the actual ****?

What ppl freak out over this when most kids with siblings of a different gender are raised like this.

However, this is a big risk. It could turn out well, but it could also turn out as a disaster. He could get bullied at school, and it's possible he'll end up with parent issues if he looks back and doesn't like the way he was raised.

They say they do it so he grows up less aggressive, but I think it's possible without doing this. I'm not aggressive at all, but I was still raised as a male.

I know the parents have good intentions with what they're doing, but it's risky.

Is it bad that I laughed?

Anyways, I don't see the problem. Maybe I'm just not looking into it enough, but I think they're just trying to showcase to their child two different ways of growing up, and let him decide what he favors later on.

How is it gonna boost his confidence/esteem when he doesn't have an identity?

What happens when he has to realize his sexuality? His actual gender?

[bleuwaffle]

I'd do this with my kid. Who cares if a toy or article of clothing is pink or blue? If they like it I'm all for it.

[Anvarie]

I hope everything turns out all right, at least they have good intentions

[TikiMiss]

that's cool i guess...but I feel like that's too young an age not to have some boundaries. Isn't that just going to make things more confusing

[vuelve88]

I think it's a very cool idea! I support it.

[Big Smoke]

Bunch of morons.

They should have that kid taken away,

Exactly

Poor boy,his struggle in grade school, I feel for him in a couple of more years

He gon be so damn confused

Shame on the parents

[GlitterfiedCyrus]

What they're doing is good, giving him both "boy" and "girl" things and letting him choose which he likes or maybe both.
And at all the people saying he needs to choose one or the other because "he needs identity"
Just because he wants to play with dolls and trucks instead just one or the other doesn't mean he has no identity. Seriously
As long as the parents aren't forcing him , there's nothing wrong with not imposing gender norms on a child. If he were to say, "I don't want to wear dresses and play with dolls" and they still made him that would be different.

[StephenNYMonster]

That is a bit messy. I thought this was going to be one of things where they are raising their child because he wanted to play with his truck and dolls. But these parents are a mess.

I agree, it'll do absolutely nothing towards his confidence. I can sort of understand why his parents have chosen to do this but honestly I don't think they've really thought about the consequences/long term effects this might have on him.
