Parents and teenagers
connecting more deeply
You would see a change in your parents. They might
not argue with you as much about things and if you get depression they will help
you through it
Ideally it would help normalise the idea of trans
or queer kids. Make parents feel less like it’s something they have to
hide or they’ve ‘failed as a parent’
Care to ask me why Iam upset, and listen with real empathy …
Express their support/love for mein a genuine way

Help-seeking
Well, generally, if there’s an issue that I don’t have any first-hand personal knowledge of, I’ll go to
family or close friends. I’ll discuss with them how they might have dealt with a similar situation. Then

and an alternative, and for someone to say: ‘You’re a good parent. You
may not feel like it, but you are.’
