Former NBA star Dwyane Wade filed Thursday to alter the gender and name of his son, a move which coincides with ongoing social pressures from the radical left for a child to choose their gender.
Wade is asking to change his 15-year-old son’s name from Zion to Zaya and change the boy’s sex from male to female. Now, the boy will be called Zaya Malachi Airamis Wade.
Wade, his wife Gabrielle Union and their son’s transformation haven’t been kept a secret. The young boy even had a one-to-one conversation with Michelle Obama.
” “When I look at Zaya I feel hope,” Wade stated at that time. He explained how they had raised their children so they could be true .”
.
The NBC All-Star claims his son “came out” as transgender at the young age of eight, but he said during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that their son wanted to have a talk about a name change at the age of 12.

” We’re trying to gather as much information possible to ensure that our child is able to do her best,” he stated.
” We take our responsibilities and roles as parents seriously. So, when our child comes home with a question, when our child comes home with an issue, when our child comes home with anything, it’s our job as parents to listen to that to give them the best information that we can, the best feedback that we can, and that doesn’t change now that sexuality [and gender] is involved,” Wade said, celebrating his son’s formal coming out in an Instagram post in 2020.
“Last night was Zaya’s first red carpet and we couldn’t have been prouder of how she handled the questions that were asked of her,” the former Miami Heat star wrote at the time, deeming his son one of the “young faces and voices for the LGBTQ+ community.”
Wade has formally changed his child’s gender following mounting criticism over left-leaning efforts to “affirm” children’s choice gender. This was embraced by the Biden Administration. The President Biden encouraged parents to affirm the gender choice of confused children and called it the “most powerful thing you can do .”
.”
Wade’s petition also coincides with backlash received by Boston Children’s Hospital, which is now playing victim after critics posed questions on its Center for Gender Surgery, which boasts of offering a “full suite of surgical options for transgender teens and young adults.” It even went as far as deleting its statement on its eligibility webpage, which stated that an individual had to be “at least 17 years old for vaginoplasty.” The main page now states that, “All genital surgeries are only performed on patients age 18 and older” — a note that was not there at the time of Breitbart News’s original report. However, it should be noted that the hospital still states that it is willing to do chest surgery on 15-year-olds, if they meet certain requirements.
Biden’s Justice Department is now involved in the fight, promising to deal with the “alleged threats” and “hate crime” that have been lodged by critics.

It is still unclear how far the DOJ intends to pursue punishment for those who openly oppose the far-left’s attempts to groom children.
