Elementary Questions

My young son is asking about things that some of his kindergarten classmates have introduced, such as dating and transgender people. This leads his curious mind to wonder how a boy would become a girl or a girl become a boy. I've decided to be truthful and let him know that most people are fine with being born a boy or girl and in order to change, they would need to have surgery and shots. I also told him that even though one of his classmates thinks she is dating a boy in class, she really isn't (especially since the boy doesn't like her); and it sounds like on "Charlie Brown" when Sally likes Linus or Lucy likes Schroeder but the boys don't like them back...
