Guest post by "Rachel" I agree with both Rachel Ann and "flitterella". The mere fact that a reporter would call Sarah's mom, out of the blue, to interview Sarah makes me suspicious immediately. One gets the impression that the only thing this reporter's thinking is, "Wow! Transgender kid? That could really sell papers!" So yeah, I'd definitely be looking at this person's other articles, and the paper he works for would get a great deal of scrutiny from me as well. Is it a respectable paper, or a scandal rag? The answer to that question would greatly influence my decision.
And yes, this provides Sarah with an introduction to the real world, and the realities of being transgender. She needs to learn that even seemingly well-meaning people could end up using her.
