Parenting Transgender Kids - The Bigger Picture

Sometimes as a parent or ally of a transgender person you can end up doing more harm than good when it comes to speaking out because you are running the risk of outing that person.And that’s why the guest in this episode is keeping their identity private, to protect the privacy and safety of her transgender child. But that doesn’t stop the conversation covering topics from the importance of grassroots activism and personal connections, what it means to be an ally, the struggles parents face when it comes to medical options for their children and having to adjust your dreams for your children’s future. Josephine and her guest also discuss how their own societal prejudices were an issue when their children first came out, but through reaching out to the community and learning they are overcoming this.

There’s a lot of discussion around neurodiversity and being LGBTQ.Many people who are gender non-conforming also have a neurodivergence such as autism and ADHD. So in this episode Josephine is talking to Anna Hayward, a counsellor specialising in supporting neurodivergent gay and gender non-conforming people. Anna herself is a gay woman and autistic. She also has gender non conforming children.The pair look at how neurodivergent individuals may have a different understanding and experience of gender compared to neurotypical people. They also explore how best to support the neurodivergent LGBTQ people in your life Please note: We had a few technical problems with this episode, and Anna's audio isn't as good as it would normally be, so if you're listening in the car or somewhere noisy, you might miss parts.
