Next week is your birthday party. How exciting! What do you want for your birthday?
Well, a car like yours would be fantastic.
Hmm...Maybe not a car just yet. You're only turning 9, you know? How about a doll?
Mom, I'm a boy. Boys don't play with stupid dolls, but a machine gun would be OK, too.
Well, not this time. Maybe we could get you a nice dress and a little purse, son. Maybe...
Maybe I should change my name to Mary since you seem to want a daughter so badly?
