[quote=Anonymous]My son likes more girlish things than most boys. I am perfectly fine with it, and bought several books, like The Sissy Duckling, to reinforce that its ok to be be different. I can understand the desire to join support groups, and second the recommendation for Childrens. That said, we are taking the support, wait and see approach. I can't change who he will be, and I want him to explore on his own without feeling any more different by going to specialists. We read a LOT of books of every type, so reading LGBT friendly childrens books sometimes is not unusual or seen as some lecture. FWIW, I have a transgender brister (born female, now male), and a homosexual brother. My parents tried to beat being different out of them. They tried the prayer route, the "you're going to hell" lectures... It did not change who they are, it only made their childhood and teen years that much more painful. Good luck![/quote]
