Folks I need help as a parent understanding what to do with a seven-year-old who is now asking me why one of his favorite cast members of the show Mr Beast on YouTube has now transitioned uh to uh, identifying as a female. So now one of the individuals Chris has a transitioned they are announcing that they are transgender. This is a two-month difference between the two photos here. Apparently Chris is now on hormone replacement therapy and he writes here in response to this tweet.

HRT it's only been two months Uh, this is obviously what I mean Mr Beast is one of the most popular channels actually the most popular Channel on YouTube But social media presence is massive. Uh, and the the question that I have is how do you respond to now a seven-year-old who's who's asking about this uh and so I'm going to give some of my responses and thoughts on this, but it is something that I'm very curious about what Society thinks and feels. So for example, here's here's another photo of Uh Chris with Mr Beast Here is just announced that he is on hormone replacement and understandably to some extent social media's um, some social media is confuse. Some social media is very proud.

My question: I don't really care what people do or how they identify I just am as a parent trying to figure out how to respond to my seven-year-old son who's now asking me I did not know that I could go to the settings menu and choose to be a girl. So I have a five and seven year old boy I Want to be very clear I support people in whatever choices they make I have nothing against how people identify or their sexual preferences I don't really care how people live their lives as long as it's peaceful. I I'm not going to tell people they can't or can do something that's not my place. so I'm completely respectful of whatever somebody's decision is that there's nothing within me at all.

Uh, that that is is offended. Uh, I'm just as a parent. uh, trying to struggle through what do you do? So I've tried to logic out some of the choices. so uh.

one response that you could make to a seven-year-old is you could say yes, you can choose But then the question is, well, when can I choose And maybe the appropriate response is you could choose when you're 18 and you're an adult. But then now more and more children that are in like first and second grade are being exposed to people changing their genders earlier and I'm like this: They don't even know what sex is at seven years old, they take like sex. Ed comes in fifth grade. What the hell am I supposed to tell a seven-year-old who's now watching Mr Beast and seeing one of his favorite characters turn into a girl I don't know what to do I am totally lost as a parent, so so on one hand I think Okay, well, maybe you could say yes, you can transition at 18 but even if you you take that approach now, how how do you say that like oh, it's an option that unlocks when you're 18.

what do you tell a child? How do you explain to a child now your girl and then they respond and go but wait a minute I thought you're a boy if you have a you know a Ding-A-Ling and you're a girl. If if if you don't and now the question is uh uh well no, it's just how you identify. Okay, well why why then can't I identify sooner right? seven-year-olds are very curious. Well if if it's if it's not a physical change that needs to be made then and I only need to say I'm like oh I want to be a girl now I don't know what to tell a 70 year old.
Now the other thing that you could say is no, you can't change genders. Uh, you're biologically what you are, but you can dress up and act however you want. You can. You can identify and tell everybody what you are, but biologically you are a boy.

that that is what it is. Uh, but now show that he's watching daily. Uh has an individual that could potentially have you know a name change. obviously a gender change and there'll be some form of Behavioral changes.

and there may even be talk about using Therapeutics like hormone replacement therapy which all of this is extremely confusing to a seven-year-old Now of course, there's one train of thought that well, then you could just censor uh Mr Beast but I I you you can't sense their children. They're gonna watch whatever they're going to watch anyway. so you can't censor it. There are going to be people in before he's 18 who transition around him I just wouldn't expect that in first grade.

I'd have to start trying to explain uh that that people can choose uh, uh uh, you know, to transition. So so really I have no problem with that I don't all I guess more of the issue that I see is now we're forcing this discussion to children who don't know anything about really, even their their own sexuality or body parts or what sex is or any of that. So I have no idea how to explain that to a seven-year-old So the approach that I've taken is that you know, hey, that's that's something you know you can. You can decide uh, generally when you're 18 and older and uh, and uh, you know that's uh, we kind of left it at that.

Uh, but again, I don't know if I'm doing the right thing as a parent because I I'm not going to censor I have nothing I'm not opposed to the decision that the individual made that Chris made. Uh, the question now though is yeah, of course, censorship never works. We know that. that's right.

Like I said, that's that's I would never censor Uh so but I know that some people are right. That's why I bring it up on social media. Some people are saying that's it I I now have to block Mr Beast right? I don't I don't think that's the right answer at all. Uh, the question is, how how do we share that with children and and that that's not also necessarily the fault of it's actually not at all.

It's not the fault of Mr Beast or Chris because they make a decision I mean they are running a show that is essentially children show. So some people are making the argument that, hey, well, if you have a children's show, this is not the place for discussing that there's an argument to be made on that side. But then there's also the response of like, well, if somebody makes a transition and they happen to be a cast member of the show, are they just not supposed to be a member of the show anymore? Well, no because they should be able to freely identify however they want. But in terms of having that discussion with a child, it's very difficult.
It's a struggle. I Personally think the the best response at least one that I will likely follow is is, uh, one that will be looked. People can make a choice to identify however they'd like. they are biology biologically what they are so you will bar you are born what you are.

Some people prefer to uh, identify differently, address and behave differently. And in the future there are things that you can do whether those are surgeries or hormones or drugs. But those are all decisions that are made with a doctor. In my opinion, when you're 18 and older and you're capable of of making that decision uh, but uh.

But but for a seven-year-old that's a I think that's a mind-blowing concept. So I think that is Uh is a discussion that has to just be had transparently with children. and we we treat our children like adults. You know we don't baby talk them.

We we teach them everything that we can about uh being productive members of society, and uh, and and uh, we're not afraid to talk to them about uh, adult, uh, things, and and uh, things that happen in the world. Whether it's whether it's uh, People's Choice whether it's uh, how uh, Finance works or corporations work or business works or how War works or how crime Works uh or or race relations, we'll teach everything. Uh, this is just a new one that uh I suppose I wasn't expecting uh, really, until at least the era of uh, of um, more of a sexual Awakening if you will and and becoming aware uh, so it just feels a little early as all. So anyway, that's a little bit of a of a struggle that uh, that I have for uh, for a seven-year-old you know.

uh Max here writes uh Free Will and understand the consequences. Give people access or, uh, to educational material and have an informed decision. However, there should be an age limit, right? Uh, that? that's the question is is how do you establish uh, age, you know? And then of course there's also the uh, you know. Then we get into discussions about trans men participating or like biological men participating in women's sports I've already made a video on that.

If you want my opinion on that, you could just type into YouTube meet Kevin trans men participating in women's sports and and you'll find that. So anyway, um, yeah, all right, that's um, those are some of the questions I have moving on.

    I agree this is such a difficult time to raise kids. I think your approach was very good. There are no recipes to be a parent. One tip I used for my kids(mom of 3 grownups). Never look shocked when they tell you things. Always give them your true opinion without extra information they weren’t requesting even if it’s not perfect, it’s the best they’ll get. And last, always trust your gut feeling!

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Paul DeSouza says:

    I think its important to be tolerant and kind to all people in all situations. However i also think that not calling it what it is, mental illness, is doing more harm to these younger folks than not

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Courtney says:

    As a member of the LGBT community, it’s a hard conversation for the parent because you feel the need to protect your child from making choices that can hurt them down the line. Personally I still think 18 is too young to make a permanent decision like that, I wanted to be a doctor at 18 and thought I was straight and I’m neither at 29.

    So, recommendation (like if they ask you if Santa is real), ask Jack what he thinks. It will give you a better sense of why Jack is asking, and you won’t need to worry about his line of questioning because you are controlling the conversation as a parent. He asks a question, answer it, ask him another question. This creates an open dialogue with less pressure on you to open up a conversation about “wen transition” and more about the general topic of people being people. You don’t have the massive burden of protecting your kid or censoring what they consume bc as you said it, you just can’t. Keep it simple, keep it kind, and let your son explore his thoughts. He’ll likely get distracted within 5 to 10 minutes anyway

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dakota Garcia says:

    Everyone talking about censoring, but i dont see anyone talking about a backup plan. Like kevin said its not possible to censor 100% of your kids activities without doing more harm than good. How to answer your kids questions without being dismissive or obfuscating, is what hes getting at. I think most importantly is to lead by example, and then as your children get older you can hopefully trust them to make the right decisios and come to you for advice.

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Isaiah says:

    I'll be a new first time father in September. I will not be allowing my children free reign over youtuve/social media.
    You can and should absolutely be filtering what your children see and interact with, especially when it can cause them severe mental harm and sickness.

    I think that's a failure as a parent, to not "censor" or I prefer to say, filter/control what your kids are exposed to on the internet.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Masterhitman935 says:

    Be honest, explain it simple. Sex is define as male or female, some individuals think it’s more gender identity, it’s strange and irrational but you are born as a male or female. and why, it’s because of 23 chroma which you will learn more when you are older.

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Fallenshroud says:

    You need to watch Jordan Peterson's latest podcast. They dive into the origins of gender theory. It's some dark stuff…

    When a kid is curious they will get answers somewhere.

    I love that you talk to them like they are adults. Explaining confusing things in simple ways is a big part of our job as parents. Avoiding the conversation is not heathy unless you want your curious kid to get their questions answered by someone that is not as interested as shaping their further (in a positive way) as you are. Although other commenters seem to think, if you don't talk about an issue, it wont exist: that's simply not the case. I have two kids that are a few years older than yours. I have explained gender as something that doesn't have a set meaning. I tell my kids not to spend too much time on worrying about gender because it means whatever people want it to. On the other hand, sex is the way were were made (biology) but sometimes people like to use biological terms to describe gender. That's why there's so much confusion. I have told my kids that if someone is confused about who is a boy or girl or what a boy or girl is, they are almost certainly, talking about gender and gender doesn't really mean anything other than a description on how someone feels.

    I let them know it's ok to be a feminine male (biological term) or masculine female and to live and have compassion for others but above that learn to love themselves and love the way they are.

    I let them know some people struggle to love themselves and there can be many problems that come as a result including, medication or surgeries to alter their bodies and other self harm. Side note, good time to talk about bullying and how they can effect others positively or negatively. And how they have to be strong and grounded, when others try to make them not like something about themselves.

    We're only a few years ahead of you but it seems to be a strategy that's working well for our kids. Keep it simple and be sure to answerer all of their questions.

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars H M says:

    Keep it simple. She felt like she was born in the wrong body, and wanted to be what she felt that she was.

    She didn't choose to feel like she was the wrong gender.

    All these bigots in your replies are just trying to get you to lie to your kids and mislead them.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Doe says:

    Transgenderism is wrong. Be brave and say it.

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars KazumaX says:

    i blame social media about this issue no one even think of somtig like that until the internet come and kids recive Phones soo they can hide from ther perents waht they watch or listen soo i blame Perents for not distipline ther kids properly people are too lazy and watching ther dam Phone 24/7 and perents almost donk care if ther child even exist

    I knew Mr. Beast was a CIA operation. I knew it!!!! Took time, but once again… I am right. Man, how I wanted to be wrong.

    Instill confidence in who they are and how they were made. There will never be a need for elective surgery or hormones if a person is filled with confidence.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SwatsRus says:

    Kevin you’re a democrat you’re supposed to be supportive of this kind of thing and already know the answer of what you’re supposed to do… you’re in republican denial. You sound like you don’t want to tell your son that he can go to the settings menu and change what you want to be.. you’re not “forcing” the discussion he asked you about it and you let your son have free roam of the internet that’s on you… republicans have been raising the same concerns as you for YEARS but you only care now that it’s your son… take the real world solution of the 2 party system doesn’t work and separate yourself from values you don’t have you’re a fence rider for whatever suits your finance needs are…

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dakota Garcia says:

    Actions have consequences as im sure youve already been teaching them. Maybe find a way to frame these things so that your kids can make responsible choices. The guy went from looking happy and healthy to looking like he just came back from the dead. I think even children are wise enough to see the two sides of the coin here.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stan S says:

    It's really easy. Same as you tell them if they see two men holding hands or some other basic homosexual show of affection. You tell them that these are people who are living their lives as they see fit. They are pursuing their happiness. And because we live in a free society they are able to do it without fear or discrimination

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Waky678 says:

    You have to have a foundation on which to build your family. Did you believe 10 years ago this transition was possible or are you shifting your beliefs now?

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars DonLandis says:

    Pretty easy if you explain to your 7 yr old that people often choose to change their appearance. For example some adults dye their hair unnatural colors. Some men men might wear eye makeup and lipstick. In an extreme case some men want to dress up and put on makeup to look like a girl while some girls like to dress up and look like a guy. Others will add body piercings and tattoos on their face. As adults do these extreme make overs they will be considered odd and maybe even mentally insecure in their real person. When a man claims he is a girl or a girl claims she is a man at that point there is a serious problem of mental illness. OK to use the word "crazy" for a 7 year old. But these people really need the help of a psychiatrist to help them feel more secure in their natural born gender.

    As far as the actor you admire, enjoy his character and the talent he plays and ignore being upset over his choice to be strange a bit weird in personal life. Enjoy the character until the character makes you feel uncomfortable. Then you will choose to move on to other people you admire.

    Thanks for bringing a real topic that impacts so many lives to the channel…financial literacy and education is real important but these topics have major impacts on more people than we realize. Kids are curious and should be curious but being the father of a gay almost 16 year old, I would say be honest but don't overwhelm kids with unnecessary info. Parenting is more complicated than it was many years ago. Social media addiction, gun violence, people being indifferent or completely ignorant on topics. Do the best you can to sleep at night and know you are raising them to be the best people they can be. Thanks !!! Also be aware of what sites they are on, and when you choose to give them a phone be AWARE of apps, screentime, ect, that can become a MONSTER to battle if unchecked. If appropriate expectations/rules are given they will know what to expect, especially if both parents are on board !!!

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars o0WhiteRaven0o says:

    We always keep an open conversation with our kids and just be honest with them. It’s the hiding and or censoring info that hurts them. Just talk with you kids daily.

    When my baby girl was 7yrs old being her dad, I had to ask her permission to start my transition. I had a shaved head at the time because my work demanded it. My work included managing and working my own businesses at the time . I simply started with asked her if I could grow my hair out to start and she said yes as long as I never cut my hair off ever again. I explained to my daughter that I'm always going to be your dad and your mom is always going to be your mom. I never told anyone to call me by she and I didn't have a name yet that suited my transition into a women. I dissolved my businesses and tied my loose ends so I could responsibly transition and started a job new job working for a time share business. One year later at work my boss called me in for a meeting with all the guys at the round table. This is when they all called me out because customers were call me she and even one of the guys that I worked closely with just knew I was looking more female. Changing my diet and taking alternative meds and epilating my face was enough to draw out my female features. I even started to see boob growth and softer skin in just two months. My boss had to squeeze details out of me about my transition. I told everyone I didn't want to burden anyone with my issues. My boss and my co-worker assured me my transitioning on the job was okay and accepted, I even got hug's. They insisted that I started to wear a bra and to not worry. They all started calling me she with out me asking and if someone called he I didn't care either way because I wasn't fully transitioned. After all of that I started blockers and estrogen. Seven years ago I finally got my sex reassignment. I had a single stage 3hr surgery in a Miami clinic. I stayed in an Airbnb for 20 days for my post surgery care… the surgery was amazing. My VJ is 10X the pleasure of what I was born with. My doctor, daughter with my best friend took care of me pre and post surgery. Society and it's prejudiced makes me want to end my life😭 even though I'm extremely happy with my SRS and the way I look. Even though no body can tell I'm a MTF unless they knew me before or I tell them my life story. I really don't know how much more I can take of this bashing🤮😭. Besides the people on social media and news like Fox news bashing me and my kind… I love my family and friends … I do having one regret…. I wish I would have transitioned sooner😞
