I don't believe that a child would choose to identify as a different gender at 6 without the influence of adult. I also think this story makes the couple look like the kind of religious people who simply want to tell everyone else what to do.

Basically all the adults look like ***** from this story, if the kids were just allowed to get on with it, the boy would wear a dress and everyone would be happy. When adults intervene they turn it into this complete cluster**** of everyone trying to claim they have been insulted and badly treated.
