2020-12-1513 minCamp Wild HeartEP 08: Learning How To Be An Ally To Your Trans ChildI know a lot of parents who, when their child first came out to them as transgender, were not surprised and celebrated their child’s ability, courage and willingness to live their life authentically. However, I also know a lot of parents who started in a place of fear and denial about what their child was telling them. This followed with them pushing back and denying their child the ability to explore what they were feeling in a safe way—or express themselves in a way that felt authentic to them. For th...

Maybe better even than they know themselves. But do we really? For some parents, that’s one of the hardest things about making sense of a child coming out as transgender. They didn’t see it coming. How could they have missed something so huge? Most parents suspect something is going on—but they just don’t know what it is. When we recognize that something is off with someone we love, we might ask q...

Advocating for your child within your family is a common experience for parents of a transgender kiddo. Some parents have no trouble pushing back against their parents, or siblings or grandparents. But many parents wonder how to go about supporting their kid with...

Naturally, this is not a conversation that is super common which is why we feel it’s even more essential to talk about, especially as it relates to—and impacts—trans people. The reality is that no one is protected from it—people of all walks of life and of all genders experience suicidal thoughts. However, trans people seem to be more vulnerable to it—not because of their transgender identity but because of being marginalized and...

Maybe you know what it's like to have someone look straight through you. Maybe your voice or ideas are regularly left out of meetings. Maybe you've been on the receiving end of some absolutely terrible customer service that leaves you wondering whether the person sees you as another human being. Ultimately, not being seen sucks.

Every kid is different. Every family is different. Sometimes trans kids come out when they’re little—and sometimes they don’t. Sometimes parents are on board from the get-go—and sometimes they aren’t. Whether parents are on board or not, it’s crucial to get support. No one prepares for the day their kid comes out as transgender. By calling in for backup, it make...
2020-08-1843 minCamp Wild HeartEP 02: How Do They Really Know? – When Your Child Comes Out as TransgenderMost kids don’t necessarily walk up to you and say, “Mom/Dad, I’m trans,” when they come out. Most of the time, however, they show early signs that they are exploring their gender and that they don’t feel right in their body. Some parents welcome the exploration. Others actively try to shut it down. Some parents shut it down without even knowing it—and when they do, they often unintentionally shut down a child’s willingness to be vulnerable and open with them abo...
