This is a child who, first of all, is confused. Second of all, be thankful that they came to you to ask you this question. You as a parent are the one who needs to be answering this question. And you have something to say about it. And you have the authority to say something about it that is an ultimate authority, and it's the Word of God.

It is our sole authority of life and practice. So I would take my children, first of all, calmly and patiently and lovingly, to the Word of God. And I would start in the very book of Genesis. Let's look at what God said. Let's look at what God did.

God's ways are perfect and they are right. And in the beginning, He made them male and female. And if you are struggling with these things, if you maybe you're confused about how you feel, again I would take them to the scripture. The heart is desperately wicked. My child needs to understand that what they feel is not truth, but truth helps them to understand how they feel.

And so, you know, on any given day you may meet me and I may have certain feelings. My emotions may be high, they may be low, they may be left, they may be right, but I am always pulled back to what does the scripture say? What does God say about this? And so helping this children child and these children maybe to navigate how do I interpret what I'm feeling and if we can instruct our children and we can get our children pointed in the right direction of okay I feel this This is where I need to go to interpret that feeling. What does God say?

Because He made me. He's the one that put my chromosomes the way they were. He's the one that nipped me in my mother's womb. He knows me. In fact, before He formed me in the womb, He knew me and He loved me.

And so, again, point them to God's Word.
