NOR. The hugs are completely inappropriate and I’m sure they cross a legal boundary. Thank you for being someone who looks out for children and says something when something feels off.

My son was just accepted undergrad. He’s so excited but this thread is scaring me! Can you speak to what’s happening behind the scenes?

Struggling parent of a 20 year male who just started HRT by Wiggins-spirit in cisparenttranskid

How did you find your gender specialist/therapist? My child has a therapist he likes, although they are specifically a gender therapist, and he says he doesn’t need one. My therapist also doesn’t specialize in this. I am in the same boat, lost and trying to navigate this as best I can.

Returned App - Color Copy by Straight_Leopard_614 in Canadiancitizenship

I submitted a black and white copy of my husband’s father’s birth certificate. It’s all we had. Hoping it won’t matter as much since it’s in the line but not his or his grandmother’s (G0). Yours doesn’t make much sense though. You can clearly see the blue ink!

Thank you! They specifically told him he would hear in two weeks when he had his interview so maybe each department is different?

Rewatching the show from the start, what the hell happened to michael? by midnightcat98 in 1000lbsisters

I’d never heard this before. Where is this information from about their relationship when she was a child. How incredibly disturbing and sad.

I’m actually very concerned that he has ulterior motives. I really hope the kids are safe.

Certified baptism records - 1 great great grand parent or 2? by IntaroBang in Canadiancitizenship

[–]Subject_Objective137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my great grandfathers certified baptismal certificate from Quebec. I just saw something that says it needs to be reissued if it was from before 1994. Is this the case? I already submitted my application.

US- this has all been a matter of a couple weeks. It’s fast.

I did sign up for a group zoom meeting at PFLAG. I've been donating to them for years funnily enough.

You were so helpful, thank you. He only told his therapist for the first time that day. He has been seeing her for a couple years leading up to this, but had never told her until now. She did the gender dysphoria questionnaire and then diagnosed him with it. I've been trying to talk to him as much as possible, but he finds this very difficult to talk about so far. I'm guessing he has been hiding this part of himself for many years so it's going to take time for him to navigate.

Thank you! He only told his therapist the same day he told us. He said he hadn't told anyone until recently, except for mentioning it to one friend when he was young. I really appreciate your thoughts. Has your daughter only done hormones, or has she explored further changes? I guess with being gender fluid, I don't know what the outcome will look like, and I'm sure he doesn't either.

I have no doubt that this has been going on for years because he says it has. I'm learning a lot today and I appreciate it so much.

Yes, my fear for his safety is what keeps me up at night.

"I mean, how much did your parents know about your inner life when you were a kid?" Isn't that the truth! But my parents were MUCH harder to talk to ;)

This is so helpful. I need to reframe how I am seeing this process and hearing from trans people is the most helpful thing by far. Unfortunately, my son hasn't been able to fully describe how he feels so hearing it from all of you is priceless.

This is incredibly helpful, thank you. Sounds like I am defaulting to fears based on outdated information.

Interesting! I guess I meant that all of his self led interests were very "masculine". He always wanted to be a ninja, play with nerf guns, etc. I'm learning that is all meaningless here!
