I thought this story was very appropriate for this point in time. Children are dealing with gender issues. This movie gives us a look into the lives of a couple trying to come to terms with their 4 year old son preferring clothing and play mostly associated with the opposite gender. Jim Parsons does a great job as a counselor and caring father. Claire Danes makes us feel her anguish as the attentive mother. Both parents struggle to accept their child for who "they" are. Can they?
