[quote=Anonymous]Keep it short and simple. Kids usually accept things more easily. When my son transitioned, it was actually easier to explain to kids than to adults. We generally focused on names and pronouns. Usually it’s a quick conversation and they accept what you say, then they digest the information and ask follow up questions later when they think of them. Sometimes they have a question or two on the spot. If he asks about body parts, I’d give a vague answer like everyone is different, or that genitals are one part of gender but not everything. I’m sure your brother appreciates the care you’re taking with explaining this to your kids. [/quote]
