A Dallas judge has ruled that both parents should have joint custody of a 7-year-old whose gender identity became central to their court battle, which drew attention from politicians across Texas.

The judge's order came just days after a jury rendered a verdict giving the mother sole conservatorship of the child.

The child was considered to be male at birth. The mother, pediatrician Anne Georgulas, has argued the child is a transgender girl. The father, Jeffrey Younger, maintains the child is a boy.In 2018, Georgulas filed a lawsuit seeking to modify her custody agreement with Younger. She wanted Younger to affirm the child with a girl's name inside and outside the home, among other requests essentially forcing the father to embrace the child's gender expressions.

The judge also ruled that "there has been no abuse, neglect, or family violence by either parent," but she also ordered the father and mother to each attend family counseling with the child and the child's twin, a boy. Abbott also tweeted that the Texas Attorney General's Office and the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services were looking into the case.sent a letterMarissa Gonzales, a spokesperson with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, said the department "has begun investigating the allegations," responding to the letter sent by the attorney general on Thursday.

Reality should always trump feelings.The insanity has to end, “gender” is a fallacy, sex is the only reality.

Put mommy in a rubber room for a decade. Kid will be fine.

The judge ordered the father and mother to each attend family counseling with the child and the child's twin, a boy. Well Adjusted Twin:

He’s 7. There should be zero disagreement on what his gender is!!

“CONSIDERED to be male at birth” 🧐🧐🧐 Come on, you’re better than this. He was born a biological male and still is a biological male.

I love being in the small population of the world that is at least half normal.

😔. Holy 💩 Only 7 eh 😔

Oh good grief The child's gender identity will evolve as they get older. No need for a parent to make a 'decision'.

LiberalismIsAMentalDisorder

Transgender is a social construct.

Oh my Goodness, Canadians love this type of USA news being fed to them, eh ?

Mother is suffering from new form of Munchausen by proxy syndrome.

Born a boy, boy until old enough to make its own decision

Has anyone asked what parts the child were born with?!?!?

Has anyone asked what the 7 year old wants?

unless there is some abnormal medical evidence at birth to substantiate the mother's claim, the mother is guilty of child abuse resulting in the childs current opinions. this needs to be stopped before suicides skyrocket even more

The mother is deeply troubled. James Young is a boy. Case closed.

THIS IS SOME CRAZY SH*T! LET KIDS BE KIDS !

'Disagree on gender'. He's a boy. The mom wants to surgically alter his genitals, which will sterilize him for life. The father doesn't.

Sounds like mommy needs a rubber room.

PS: the mother should be facing charges.

There is a sickness spreading around the world. And THIS is a prime example. I was a tomboy growing up. Loved doing boy things. Still do. I am a woman! My parents let me be a child and do my thing. They KNEW I would grow into whatever I wanted to be. A girl, that liked boy stuff
