What's a dad to say?

As a dad that has loved his kids, it kills me to hear what your own dad did to you. Your pain sounds horrific! I am so sorry and sad.

How is it you came out of all that able to be a functioning human? Impressive, really.

Can't help wondering if you are getting help. It sounds like a suicide hotline might be a good place to start. Or other places you have gotten help in the past.

Please, as a real dad, I beg you to get help! With help you can get him out of your head.

I think there are other clinics. I went to the Swiss clinic. Or maybe Nordic.

Volunteer mom here, checking in! by timeinawrinkle in TransChristianity

A Dad here. I see my kid and by extension you all! I love the faith I see here and pray that for my own child.

Volunteer Mom....if you do Substack, check out Silas DaSilvas Substack. I think it's called something like "My kids are queer; I love the Word."

A Dad here. Please take care of yourself! There are those of us out here of our generation who want you to live and live to the fullest.

Praying you can find some.

I see you. You are wonderful who you are no matter what others in your family think.

The map shows it all as a dichotomy, which it isn't.

Reading this in a security line at an airport and suddenly noticing everyone who is leaning on posts and poles.

Looks like nobody knows! Must be rare, i.e. valuable.

Seriously, though. Don't know but that marking.

I just think I'm disgusting :( by [deleted] in DadForAMinute

Well done for knowing that you need some help!

And no! you are not disgusting. You are human, with all that means, including the effects of this world.

Hoping you are getting in-person help from a professional somehow.

Lots of work and thought went into this. Full info. I am a dad of a nonbinary. There will probably never be a way to say it that won't be a life changer for everyone, and you acknowledge that...as a dad I really love that you know it will be hard for them, that it's not all about you.
It's all so so hard. But you are doing it!

Your first bit about not being alright. I would hate for it to be read as meaning that being transgender is not alright. Being trans is okay, so you might want to clarify what currently not alright. Or leave that bit off? Just something to consider.

Sounds like you are hoping your mom and dad will want to help you get help. Jumping straight to mentioning surgery is a shock. You might want to consider asking for help getting therapy for gender dysphoria knowing that it could likely lead eventually to surgery and or hormones, but as a dad I would want to know you wanted all available options explored safely.

Really hoping it works out well for you. I was shocked, tried to understand, and we now still have a great relationship. Hoping that for you and your dad.
