Just wondered of any other Gransnet members have g.children who are, or think they are, transgender.
One of mine is. First of all said she was gay (she was not quite 14 years at the time), then six months later declared that she was transgender.
Since then he has lived life as a boy -and does seem much more relaxed and happier than he was previously.
As a younger child she was a very girly girl.....liking lots of sequins, and glitter. Looking back this may have been his way of trying to cope with being a girl, but feeling more like a boy.
No problems with parents or extended family accepting any of this, very good support network, and the school has also been very supportive.
All my close friends accept this without a problem, but I am always taken aback by some reactions I get if i mention it at any of the groups to which I belong.
I still finding myself getting confused with pronouns......
Just wondered if any other posters would like to join me in discussing queries on this matter?
