Hello gay people in my phone. My child (16) sort of came out as trans to me today. I have been here for the memes for a while, and ive long been a supporter of gay and trans rights.

Do yall have any recommendations of resources for parents of trans kids? I want to help and support them correctly and to the best of my abilities.

Looking for maybe books and communities? Thank you.

    Congratulations on being the parent they felt comfortable coming out to! Son came out around the same age, he’s 20 now.

    A lot is going to depend on your location. Name change paperwork was a chore but not as much as navigating insurance for HRT. Public school was mostly okay but much was remote due to COVID.

    Pm is you have any particular questions.
