Am I overreacting? How young is too young

Saw this comment on a popular trans TikTok persons account (I won't say their name to target them but they have featured here before for their offensive stereotypes of women) and found it very disturbing because the child is 6 years old.

I adore every video you make. My six year old son is currently dipping a toe in the not-sure-im-a-boy water and I'm so grateful to have content like yours to let him know everyone's perfect in their own unique way

Another comment was a lady saying when she looked at this persons 'breasts' (there was basically nothing there even though the TikTok star is currently on hormones) that they were the same size as her daughters and she had some bras to recommend

Yikes

I dunno I just find it very creepy that people are willing to be so personal about their children to a stranger and the fact that why can't we let kids be kids for a while until they're old enough to comprehend themselves and what being trans actually means and what it would undertake

Personally I'm less bothered by the sharing of information than I am by the thought of what they are teaching their kids about gender.

If your six year old son likes dolls and dressing up, why the hell are you not saying, "That's fine, James, you do you" rather than "maybe you're a girl"?

It’s ridiculous. People should keep their kids away from extreme internet cultures and let them develop independent of the influence of strangers. I bet the six year old would be just fine.

Not overreacting. The parent could let their kid know they are perfect by simply letting them play/dress the way they want without comment. They are transing their kid.
