Back when my son was 9 - 11 he used to hang around with a classmate buddy of the same age. The kids' older sister is very artsy with weird hair colors but the parents are normal in all respects.
Just as puberty started kicking in, my son's friend gained a bunch of weight, suddenly wanted to be called a girls name and started wearing some of his sisters old eccentric outfits. My kid immediately distanced himself from the kid and we lost touch with the parents for a long time.
Just saw the kid last week and thankfully he snapped out of it and is now dressing as a normal 16 year old. Also he's playing male sports again and lost some weight.
