What causes gender identity disorder in kids?

I would suggest that you look at multiple sources to help you figure out what best reflects your situation.

Born Transgender: There's no scientific evidence 2support belief that kids get 2B transgender b/c of the influence of caregivers who're emotionally detached or who provide "confused" gender role messages.
