The answer to this hypothetical obviously depends on a lot of unknown factors, especially exactly how old the child is. It is not unusual for pre-pubescent children to engage in gender non-conforming behavior or even say they sometimes feel like the opposite gender.
If my kid told me he was trans, my gut instinct would be to unpack what they are feeling about gender norms/roles. I would stress that there is no one way to be a boy or a girl and that no one is a 100% "match" to the gender stereotypes associated with their biological sex. I would also try to be very body positive with them.
