I can't prove it and neither can the parents, but this is where the parents' logic really falls apart. In so many of these stories, the "I knew they were non binary" moment is when the child makes a choice involving fashion, or a haircut, or something cosmetic like lipstick. Those things have significance to the adults, but much less significance to a small child, because the child doesn't understand that certain clothes or haircuts are associated with boys or girls. They don't think it's a big deal to ask for a skirt instead of pants. So it's really the parents attaching their own significance to what might be meaningless choices for the child.

Many trans people knew as small children and very few had supportive parents, let alone "woke" ones.

And saying adults are the ones that assign so much value to gender/societal roles is a statement so close to a breakthrough in support of the LGBT community and you can't even realize it.
