A 12-year-old German boy who insisted he was a girl trapped in a boy's body convinced his parents that something had to be done, so they agreed to allow him to receive a series of hormone injections, making him the youngest sex-change patient in the world, according to published reports Monday.
Now 14, the boy, who went by the name Tim, has now become Kim - a blue-eyed blonde with a growing bust line who is allowed to wear make-up at weekends.
Kim has no boyfriends at present but her parents say she is interested in what, now, is the opposite sex.
Her treatment, which has cost more than $40,000, is being funded by German taxpayers. Don't shake your head in disbelief, US taxpayers could be next. With "Gay Marriage" in the works in several states don't think for a minute that some man some where in a gay relationship won't "feel the urge" to unleash his "her" and you'll be paying!
Psychiatrists treating her say she was an 'exceptional case - a person clearly in the wrong body', even though the decision to grant her wishes when she was so young is still the subject of intense debate.
Her identity and medical insurance cards have been changed to her new name and sex.
