I believe my daughter did talk to the principal about this. I will ask her..and ask if she has talked to the parents too.

to the trans folks:

What experiences did you have, as a trans kid, when your parents were called/talked to, about your gender issues at school?

I think it is admirable that your daughter is acknowledging the child's gender; however, the parents need to be aware of this situation and (hopefully) be on board (as well as administration) with a reasonable, aware and compassionate approach to recognizing and affirming this child's gender.
