While the Katie show web description was not worded well, the show was amazing!!!
It was filled with information that anyone who is concerned about a trans person at such a young age.
Just like Maine (see http://equalicomdiscrimination.blogspot.com/2013/02/the-maine-idea.html?m=1) Colorado has the Anti-discrimination Act.
This little girl's family is brave!! The comments on the Fox31 website...you have to see for yourself. Hopefully, for their sake, no one will try to say such things directly to them. They are said to have scheduled a press conference on Wednesday 2/27 on the Colorado Capital steps at 11am. They are represented by TLDEF attorney, Michael Silverman.
Already, Colorado newspapers are running stories on their websites http://www.denverpost.com/recommended/ci_22674172
Our hats are off to them.
