Overview

Mom, Dad, I Want to Be a BOY! - Girls' Version It is quite common and normal for a young child to wish to be the other sex. In the past, it was very clear that no action was necessarily needed. In our time, though, with all the social messages, the response of the parents to this wish is crucial. How to support the child while still being an anchor for reality-based self-acceptance? Enhancing the resilience of your kid with a unique children's book. The book was written by Dr. Tal Croitoru, a BA in Education, and Ph.D. in Social work, based on ideas she got after listening to a testimony video from an American psychiatrist (Dr. Stephen Levine, the specific video was removed from the internet) who has over fifty years of experience in treating gender dysphoria. The specialist stated that children naturally have a very simple and childlike perception of what it means to be a boy or a girl, and based on this, they categorize themselves into a ""box"" (certain toys, clothes, colors, hobbies, etc.). According to the specialist, his professional experience and research show that the majority of children with gender dysphoria naturally desist from it within a few years, after reaching adolescence, as their perspective changes with time. The younger ones and their brains go through a maturation process, and the result is that, for the vast majority, instead of a simple and childlike perception of what it means to be a boy or a girl, they develop a more complex perception that allows gender non-conforming boys to be in the 'boys' box and the same for girls, so there is no need to change their bodies to fit into a 'box.' The goal of this book is to help young children expand their perspective proactively. One day, Donna came to Mom and Dad and said ""I want to be a boy""! What happened then? What did Mom and Dad say to Donna? A book for joint reading with the parents, For girls aged 6 to 12.
