Mum: Why my four-year-old boy attends school in a dress

A mother has told Radio 5 live that she is allowing her four-year-old son to wear a dress to school because he believes he is a girl.

Logan Symonds is a four-year-old boy from Gloucester and he's been wearing girls clothes in public for nearly two years.

During the Easter holidays he asked his mum if he could wear a pinafore for school so that he could 'fit in' with the girls and he's been doing that ever since.

Speaking to Daily's Phil Mackie, his mum Emma Symonds said: " I would rather have a happy little girl, than a unhappy little boy, regardless of what society says he should fit into. I don’t want to force him to be something he doesn’t want to be."
