i think you are making it up, along with losing your wife to a doll collection or whatever you asked.

You're son was probably following his heart. There are people born who feel like they should be the opposite gender than the one they were born in. Those people are transgendered. There's no real definite explanation as to why this occurs. But trangender people are born that way. They don't "turn" or "convert" at a specific time in life.
It takes tons of balls and guts to admit to it. It takes even more to get surgery to change your body. In no way is Michelle a "pu$$y". A "pu$$y" wouldn't have the courage to admit to being different, getting counseling for it (which many transgender women and men do), go under the knife to remove and add a plethora of things, and THEN go admit it to their parents.
Your son/daughter is strong. She's a great model of strength and courage. (One of the many virtues soldiers idealized) Don't immediately write her off as a "pu$$y"
Michelle is still the same person. She is just more true to herself than she has been before.
Ask yourself, why are you taking it like you are?
Then, sit down and talk with her.

first off, I have no idea.
But I think you should just try to consider that nothing has happened to your son, just your son's body. If he feels he's better suited to a woman's hardware, well, whatever. As long as he's got his pants on he's still the child you've always had, a veteran and all.

Your son cannot change the fact that he was born a woman in a mans body he was born this way. It is nothing y ou did or anyone did.

you're son wanted to be a girl. He relates to being a girl. He wants to have sex with men as a girl. there is nothing else to understand. Just love her and accept her.

the mother might have somthing to do with it. but i think if ur son is happy then u should support him because ur the #1 person that he cares about, no matter what he says or does.

most likely most of the time shrinks cant help because, who wants to tell other strangers there problems try talking to him, he trusts you alot more then he does them. ;-)

are you serious? well if you are, you should respect your sons decision to become a woman.

LOVE YOUR SON NO MATTER WHAT. HE'S ALWAYS HAD THESE FEELINGS BUT NEVER EXPOSED THEM I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE TIME TO YOURSELF AND EMBRACE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR SON.
