Yep, pretty much all of us had vivid imaginations and had various ideas of what we wanted to be growing up. Fortunately, it never got us pigeon holed into an irreversible path. The surgical alteration of a child, based on external influence and a passing fancy should be criminal and not allowed. If a child truly feels like they are the wrong gender and this lasts for multiple years, then by all means, they should be able to decide for themselves, when they turn 18. If their parents feel that strongly supportive, then they can pay for it. Taxpayer money should not be used for cosmetic and elective surgery.
