The transgender thing I can accept. The being a 6 year old again, no. The family that has "adopted" him/her, no.

What kind of sick twisted childhood did this guy have to want to do this now. Somebody, somewhere, beat him down whether it was physically, or mentally to the breaking point. It's hard to blame this guy for the misdeeds of others.

He was married for 23 years and brought children into this world. He has responsibilities beyond himself.

^^This. We go through changes in our lives, marriages end sometimes. OK. At the very least, he needs to take care of his children financially.

True but somehow all that old school stuff got "lost in translation" in recent years.

Actually this guy is still responsible for the choices he makes regardless of what may have happened to him in the past.
The abusive childhood defence is so often used for people simply not doing the right thing.

But that's the whole problem. What is the right thing to do in a given situation? Most people can't even agree on that.

It's all about personal responsibility. I he wants to be a women and is not hurting anyone then so be it but this guy is also a father.

You expect a 6 year old to work? You monster.

I am trans-rich. I am a rich man trapped in a poor middle class Guy's body.

Obviously the government needs to support him so he can embark on his journey of personal discovery.
