A parent can accept a child's decision/announcement and still be a parent with full rights

When it comes to trans kids (that's what this really is about), a shell game is at play.

- It's about child health and psychology when the parents *are* trans affirming.

I think it's all really complicated for trans kids and their parents already. We are mostly just adding political fuel to the fire.
At the end of the day I support trans kids and want them to be as fulfilled and happy as possible, even if I can't tell them the best way.

Oh, regular reminder that I have a near zero tolerance policy for transphobia on my posts.
