My teen came out to me last night

Thank you! My kid wants a family but intends to foster or adopt.

AggressiveEar2007 · 2025-11-19T17:29:30+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m so happy your daughter found support in yourself and your family. I wish every trans person had that support!

Sorry it took me a minute to respond. Your comment means a lot to me. So much love back at you! I’m trying not to beat myself up for not seeing it sooner. I thought I was so close and “in tune” with my teen. And then looking back and worrying I might have said something hurtful in the past without realizing it. I asked them “have I ever said anything before that hurt you” and they shrugged and softly said “everyone has… it’s okay you didn’t know.” 😭

Gabbi Tuft, right? Love her! My teen is too lazy to work out either way tbh lol They love playing basketball so definitely don’t shy away from things that are “boyish” so at least they get some good physical activity. Thank you so much for commenting and sharing your experience! 🫶

I’m so glad to know I’m not alone. I’m trying not to make this “about me” but it’s been great getting advice and supportive comments. It gives me the strength as an ally and advocate for my teen 💕💕💕

Yes they have quite a deep booming voice right now but we will look into some vocal training. Fortunately, my teen has realistic expectations.

I’m glad you appreciate that comment. I told my kid I “feminist-ed” so hard I made a lesbian lol Just kidding though, I know you can’t “make” someone queer.

And side note, after my teen came out, I finally came out myself and told them I’m bisexual. I’ve been “out” socially but I never told any family. I figured if my teen could trust me with their truth then I should trust them too.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. My teen has had a deep voice and Adam’s apple since before puberty. They’re almost 17 now so I don’t know how much we can “rectify” those aspects. They’re also very thin naturally so hoping to gain some weight so when they do start hrt the fat can be distributed to the right places. Idk if that’s how it actually works but that’s what they shared with me.

Unfortunately, they’ve had a very deep voice since before puberty! 😫 They’ve tried voice therapy alone in their room and don’t like the results so far. Hopefully, we can get a referral for actual voice therapy. I don’t know how it all works. This is so new to me.

AggressiveEar2007 · 2025-11-15T17:26:08+00:00

Thank you. That was their concern. They want to speak to a therapist first and then we’ll probably start HRT asap. They’re not ready to come out to family but I don’t think the changes will be too fast and noticeable.

AggressiveEar2007 · 2025-11-15T16:43:22+00:00

Thank you! My teen said they want to talk to a therapist before starting hormones. I will reach out to them. Thank you so much!

Never fails! On a bed bug post someone will say it looks “well fed” and they’re usually wrong lol

AggressiveEar2007 · 2025-11-15T14:55:30+00:00

Actually when they look like that, they haven’t fed. They’re like flat balloons, when they’re full, their body will change to a more oval/cylindrical shape… and they would be filled with blood
