FOUR-YEAR-OLD TWIN BOY BELIEVES HE'S A GIRL

A mum from Gloucestershire has accepted her four-year-old twin son’s decision to live full time as a girl - and is now letting him wear a skirt to school. After months of pleading from her son Logan, mum Emma Symonds, finally decided to let him wear the full girls' uniform to school. The decision came as part of the next step in the huge transition for little Logan, who has believed he is a girl since just 18-months-old. 34-year-old Emma, from Tredworth, Gloucester, says: “Letting him wear a skirt to school was a big step for us all."
