Joey has always felt different, especially when playing with friends like Adam or sitting with the girls at recess. By age nine, she knows she's not a boy, but telling her family is terrifying. One Shabbat evening, Joey's anxiety builds during the family blessing. Unable to bear being called a boy any longer, she stops the ceremony and shares, "I'm not really a boy." Her parents listen closely and, after a heartfelt conversation, offer unconditional love. They agree to use "she" and "her" for Joey. Though they make mistakes, they do their best, and Joey finally feels seen. At the next Shabbat dinner, she receives the blessing she's always wanted.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
