no, gender nonconforming is a fancy word for transsexual. it means your son is a tranny in the making and likes to wear dresses and make up and you sent him to a camp where he is allowed to do that and can meet other boys who also like to go in drag.depends on how old/obvious he was. more than likely not. i'm sure this will bring a lot of funny reactions but i see it as something that is just as crazy as all those jesus camps, teaching fairly tails and PROGRAMMING children to feel a certain way. i'd have to look more into it and if it was going to make him happy and the camp was legit, who am i to deny him.
it's not like their going to cut his dikk off that day or anything, right? it's just fun in dresses?

if my son would be like that i would probably have to deal with it and accept him. i dont know about sending him to that camp though.
i think a great deal of discretion would have to go into it and it would more than likely be a no from me. the place would really have to have a good reputation before i got involved and the child would have to really want to go. im the b in lgbt and i've done drag plenty of times. that doesn't mean i want to actually be a woman. i found my own way and i think it's because there wasn't no much pressure one way or the other. just on knowing that i was loved by my family. i feel that this is probably one of the best ways to go about things but i can say that there were times when i felt completely lost. something like this could help a lot of people (as we're talking about one of the most suicidal demographics, not even touching on hate crimes) but it would be a little fukked up to send my kid to a place like this.
that's my point. i would accept him and show him love so he doesn't develop insecurities and other mental issues, even though i have to admit it would probably take some getting used to for me. but i would be reluctant to send him to a camp like that because even though meeting other kids like him could provide a support system, parents of "special" children, what ever that specialty might be, a lot of times like to go overboard with shyt and thus i'd like to keep him away from that and have him find his own way.
Disturbing shyt and borderline child abuse in my opinion.
This, sending your child to fakkit camp as a means of letting them "be themselves" is ridiculous.
Another example of cacs taking individual expression too far.
