EPISODE 54–Just the FAQs–Moms of Trans Minors 

In this episode of In the Den, Jen joins two mothers of young transgender children to answer a handful of frequently asked questions regarding actively parenting an underage trans child in today’s political climate. Because it isn’t currently safe to be a transgender child, and because we don’t wish to put trans children or their families at increased risk, we will be using pseudonyms and changing identifying information for this episode’s guests to protect their anonymity so that we can discuss these important topics without putting a target on families’ backs.

• When did your child first start talking to you about gender and what did that look like?
• How did you respond to those early ideas and conversations?
• Was there a specific point where you knew that this was a real thing?  And what did you do at that point?
• Did your child experience dysphoria and what did that look like from the outside?
• What was the first step of transition for your child?
• What sorts of things came next?
• What transition related things do you see for your child’s future?
• How has this all been socially for your child and your family?
• How are the political conversations and current legislation impacting your family?
• What common myths can you debunk for us?
