Topic : 08/04 Daddy Drama

He is who he is.  He was born this way and his life must have been hell all those years, as he tried to be someone other than who he really was.  Now it is his turn to be his own person.  The girls should realize "he is still the same person" and embrace him, and be happy for him, that he is finally able to live his life and be happy.  The girls, obviously, need counseling, but they are being very selfish.  He did not abandom them, they abandomed him. 

I think they need more time to settle this.

I think the father should have talked about this before he did this, not to convince him not to do this, but to prepare the children, try to make them understand (try).

I can imagine that his kids are confused, and I think he is in no position to ask anything from them then learning to accept this. And he should give them all the time they need to learn and accept  this.

Ofcourse he has the right to do this, as it is the only thing he could do to be happy with himself (I geuss), but he has no right to press it upon his children.

 

I hope they can work it out, but the children are very young, I keep my fingers crossed.

Daddy Doctor Drama Phil. Are you kidding me? Doctor Phil donot turn yourself into a woman or your wife-

Robin will be mad at you. See you on Monday August 04th, 2008. Sincerley Your. Russell Vlaanderen.-----

 My x did his to the kids when they were small, Hit my daughter the hardest. But he wanted kids to call him Aunt  so for many years they did now he who went back to a man wants to be dad the youngest is 30 a tad to darn late .He wasn't happy before after or now i think alot of the doctors he saw needed to see a doctor.

Yes biologically he still has xy chromosomes. He's just very selfish. He's job as a parent is to put his kid's first. The youngist is 13. He made vows to his wife. A husband puts his needs last and the wife first. Obviously he is not a stable person since he has so many personality issues. He should at least appolgize for what this is doing to heir lives,but it's always about Kayla's feelings not his girls.  

 

You're sickening.  How can you say this what this so called person being born a boy, grew up to be a "man."  Gotten married, had 2 daughters, then decides to be a "woman."  His daughters were very close to their Father and sounds like he was close to them.  They're very hurt.  They already have a "Mother," they don't need to have another one.  He's the one is being "very selfish." 

 

You're the one that needs to grow up!!!!  One thing for sure, if your Father decided to change his gender to become a woman, you'll be singing a different tune.  I know down deep inside it'll hurt you, just as it did for these two young girls.

 

I know I couldn't accept him as a woman, when he needs to be man and a Father to his own daughters.

I'm surprised and disappointed that an individual who served his country in the performance of military and law enforcement duties has forgotten what has been instilled and becomes the core of those professionals: service to God, Country, Family & Friends before yourself.  Most of these professionals would rather die protecting and keep anyone from harming their loved ones and neighbors.  I do see this man turning his back on his family in his quest for totally selfish reasons.

As a transsexual, you can never feel the pressure we face every day! There are numerous examples of MtFs who enter the military and/or police officer/firefighters an a vain attempt to "cure" their gender dysphoria. There are those who also say that if you have kids, it "cures" you of those feelings.

Just remember, my dear, you cannot judge unless you walk a lifetime in our shoes!

Rad, the pressure from family and society can be tremendous! "Be a MAN!", they scream. It's perfectly fine for a girl to like what's traditionally boy's play and society calls her a 'tomboy', but when a boy is interested in frilly things and says she's a girl he's called a 'sissy' and is ridiculed, teased and tormented.

I'm transsexual and have lived through the abuse society has heaped on me for 48 years! You have no idea what it's like to wake up every day hating the body I was born in and have no economic support or ability to make my life complete because of the prejudice and bigotry I've had to deal with.

What most of you folks don't know is that in our community, the unemployment rate that can be measured is seventy-five percent! Try applying for a job when you've had a lifetime of testosterone infecting my system and trying to look as feminine as possible... and don't tell me to dress as a guy, because that's living a lie, and will never ever do that.

Dr. Phil has got to get an education in transgendered lives. He's supposedly an educated man and a PhD in psychology, well, I have to say that he must have skipped those classes in gender, because his track record is very weak! I remember the show about gender variant children, and a parent was worried their boy was going to grow up gay because he wanted to be a girl and Dr. McGraw agreed. Dr. McGraw, if a boy says he wants to be a girl she's transgendered, NOT gay!!

You're not going to get any sympathy here and you know that. God made you who you were born as for a reason.
