Hi Susna: But Jazz is unhappy being a boy and not being able to wear a dress. Jazz's mother saw this when Jazz was taking ballet lessons and would not wear a tu tu. She just would tap her feet. Sure you can force your child to be a "boy" born with boy parts. What you would have is probably an unhappy boy who could every chance he gets wear girls clothes or grow up unhappy. I value your op ion and love the feedback. I am sure there are hundreds of Jazz's stories out there and their parents are fighting to keep their boys "rough and tough" manly boys; and probably winning the battle but losing the war.
