wants to show this to parents but is to fricking scared

[@sifinerdprincess]

Well, it's 7am, i haven't slept, I've been feeling extremely dysphoric and I've been crying a lot. Contemplating sending my dad a link to this video. I already came out to him but he basically said its a phase and pushed me back in the closet…

I'm thinking of sending this to my mom...wish me luck?

[@alfaback1532]

I identify as a Trans girl, and i plan on coming out very soon. I'm already out as a gay cis-male and my parents accept me and say they love me unconditionally. But In the past I tried drag makeup and just really got into the makeup scene and this made them very uncomfortable and they didn't want me presenting myself as a "female". I tried explaining how it was just a mask or a character and they still didn't understand. But I'm hoping that coming out as a fully female identified individual they will begin to understand. And this video will definitely be played for them. Thank you so much for your wisdom and kind words Skylark. <3

I'm not crying you're crying. my parents weren't supposed to find out and it's really damaged me the way they reacted. I needed this

[@kairose3161]

My mom is very transphobic and I'm really scared to come out but I want to be happy and start to transition

[@jlavery1981]

My daughter came out to me as transgender a few days ago. I just told her I loved her and I'd love for her to become my son. She's still deciding on pronouns so for now I use the old pronouns, with her ok. I just don't know the first steps to help her on this journey. :(. Any advice would be great.

I want to come out to my parents as ftm, however they are incredibly disrespectful towards anything LGBT+ related, and I'm terrified that I will become further alienated from my family. Part of me wants to wait until college, where I'm in a safer situation but the other (larger) part wants to come out now so I can be in a better mental state.

My 13 year old told me today.I love my child and want my child to feel supported and loved. I am struggling to wrap my head around it.Thanks for pointing to some resources.

As a trans (parent) I love watching your videos and getting this type of advice information. Seeing you happy and thriving gives me confidence that my little guy is going to grow up and continue to be as happy as he is now even though at this point he's still so innocent and young and it's us as his parents who are dealing with the majority of it at this point. But I'd do it all over again any day. Anyway great video and great tips.

I'm a boy. I don't know how I'm going to transition, but I'm going to do it.

[@thehomohomie5259]

The urge to send this to my mother after she gave me crap about being trans grows with every minute I'm alive ò-ó
