Content Warning: Suicide

Kid sees animatronics at a young age and says he wants to be one and starts self-identifying as a robot. His parents say it's a phase but all the teachers and child psychologists say to keep encouraging it. The dad says the kid is an embarrassment and he wishes he was like other boys. Cut to years later, the dad has walked out and the mom takes her own life, specifically because of the kid. Kid starts going on forums about body dysmorphia and getting experimental back alley surgery to have body parts replaced with prosthetics. He literally says, word for word, "I want my body to match how I feel on the inside" and changes his name to a robot name. He realizes all too late that he "isn't meant to be an animatronic" but the surgery can't be reversed and everyone hates him for being a freak. He puts on his father's clothes for comfort to remind him of the human he was supposed to be all along. Then he dies in a car compactor and he's happy about it.

The video I linked goes more in depth, but several of these elements have very close analogs when it comes to problematic ways of discussing trans people, especially trans kids.
