As regards the ten-year-old French boy, who wants to be female when he grows up:- It would seem that the boy's father and Pope Francis both believe that the young boy thinks this way ONLY because he has had his mind confused by a 'gender theory' text-book in his school. 
Bu do such books really exist?
The French Education Minister, Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, has suggested in reply to this story that the Pope should come to meet teachers in a French school, the next time he comes to France - 'to take a look at the schoolbooks ... and explain to me where the gender theory, which doesn't exist by the way, is in these books'.
The French education system seeks, she said: 'to avoid a hierarchy between one sex and another; to fight against sexism; and to fight against sexual harassment'.
