About This Quote

The day our son was born, my wife and I told him that he was a little boy, not a little girl. The next morning, he asked us to tell him again that he was a boy. He even asked if he could have a toy truck. We smiled and assured him that boys have trucks too. It wasn’t until later in life, when he told us about the time he got his first girlfriend, that we understood how deeply it had affected him to be told by us at such a young age that he was a girl.
