Let's go now to Kelly in Jacksonville, North Carolina.

Hi, Kelly.

Hi, good morning, Patrick.

I was calling because my four-year-old who goes to preschool, we live on a military base,

and she goes to preschool and the base school.

I recently learned that there's a little girl in her class who is now become a little boy.

Well, you know, completely blindsided.

Little girls can't become little boys, and little boys can't become little boys.

I understand what you're saying.

I'm just putting a little editorial comment in there.

Yeah, go ahead.

Yes, yeah, I just don't even really know how else to phrase it.

But she, so this happened this week, and so she's home with me now.

I just, my gut reaction was I don't want her to be exposed to this any more than she already

has, and maybe if we never talk about it again, she'll forget it ever happens.

But I do have three other children who go to the school that are older. And my inside source has informed me that this particular case is the only case in the school.

But I'm, first of all, you know, I don't want to traumatize my four-year-old by abruptly pulling her out of her school, which she likes.

So I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing there.

I mean, traumatize her unnecessarily.

And then also with my older children, I have one of them who loves the school.

I'm passionately loves the school but I I just feel like

this is a red flag that I just can't ignore we only have one more year in this town
