Is there a way of dealing with Gender Identity Disorder without gender reassignment? My daughter has told me repeatedly that she prays each night that she wakes up in a man's body. Because she is a Christian, she faces a moral dilemma each day regarding the depth of our relationship.

Gender dysphoria is a very persistent disorder. It can't be cured in the normal sense of the word. When I treat someone, my only objective is to help them live with their gender variant condition. That can range from encouraging them to introduce some minimal form of cross gender behavior in their daily life to giving serious thought to complete gender role transition. There are no other known alternatives other then to suffer the anguish of inaction. There should be no more a moral dilemma involved with gender identity issues than with any other medical condition.
