It first started at two-and-a-half nearing three. Someone would say to her that she was a cute boy and she would snap back and exclaim, “I’m not a boy, I’m a girl!’’’

I have a nephew that's turning 3 in December. This is such pure bullshit.

It can't be a coincidence that the mother is trans and just happens to have a 2 year old that thinks they want to be trans. Sounds like indoctrination

I think the word you were looking for is: grooming.

I think the word you were looking for is: grooming.

No, its grooming if the mother was indoctrinating the child with the intent to have sex with them.

From Oxford dictionary:

"The action by a pedophile of preparing a child for a meeting, especially via an internet chat room, with the intention of committing a sexual offense.

From Wikipedia

Child grooming is befriending and establishing an emotional connection with a minor,[1][2] and sometimes the child's family, to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse.[3][4]

If there isn't any alleged sexual abuse, it's simply brainwashing and indoctrination without the intent to sexually abuse that would constitute 'grooming'

Incorrect. The word grooming can totally apply here. Context is everything.

Grooming is a strategy employed by pedophiles to fuck children, I don't see any evidence of that happening here.

This appears to be a very fucked up mother, who's child has been indoctrinated into cult-like trans ideology. If you teach a kid that gender isn't real at a young age, its not that surprising that they believe it, kids think Santa is real at that age.

Both of these things, grooming and indoctrination are bad, and have some similar elements, but they are not in fact the same thing

Grooming can mean something else. For example it can be said someone is groomed for a roll like a politician is grooming his successor. Or a parent grooming their child to be an actor.

The latter being a very common issue with the likes of child stars in Hollywood and whatnot. Honestly makes the entire situation much more thorny. If this child wasn't a model then we could look at the situation and say it's likely merely a case of the parent pushing their ideas on the child, however now millions of dollars are riding on the child's identity so it opens the question of whether or not the parent is doing it to get rich. Should the child express that they aren't a girl, would the parent then just allow the child to be themselves and lose out on millions of dollars?
