'Gender fluid' or just a total mess? The kid will suffer all kinds of torment at school, through no fault of his own.
Right, because the problem is with *that* child's parents and in NO WAY the fault of the parents of the little bastards who will bully and torment them...

Some things in life are just shit, simple as that.
Going all out to go off the beaten track is asking for trouble if truth be told.
Good luck to him if he grows up to be a decent and possibly stronger adult for all the crap that WILL affect his childhood. There's no ifs or buts about this one, he's got a mountain to climb and it's not gonna be easy or pleasant.
As for the bullies, again, shit happens. We had them when i was a kid, and i'm sure, world wide, they're still dominating the schools as we speak.
It's not an ideal planet we live on for sure, but there are certain things that can be avoided to make the journey in life just that little bit easier, and in this case that responsibility lands firmly on this kids messed up parents. In fact i doubt we can even begin to imagine a fraction of what this poor sod has to go through on a daily basis.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
