Be Love. Be Patience. Be Curiosity. Be Approachable. Be Supported. Being a grandparent to a trans child can feel isolating. Generational differences can make it challenging for you to understand what they’re going through, and you might not have the vocabulary to discuss it with them, or have found peers who are experiencing something similar. At the same time – your love, understanding and acceptance will play a huge role in the flourishing of your trans grandchild. With up-to-date research on gender identity, letters and stories from grandparents on the same journey, resources for transgender youth and their families, and a selection of online and local support groups – this book provides uplifting, educational guidance on how to support your grandchild – and yourself!
