[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of trans people may have chromosomal abnormalities like xxy or xyy, but I think a high percentage of the really young trans or non binary [b]kids are either doing it for attention, [/b]to fit in, or because of peer pressure to be “inclusive” or special. I think the actual number of true trans (due to chromosomes and being mislabeled as infants) is probably pretty small. [/quote] I work in a junior high. Believe me, they'd rather be a typical hetero kid. [/quote] I think it’s the parents wanting Instagram attention that their kid is trans or non binary. For instance, my tween now hates dresses and pink. Loves soccer clothes in the color blue. NBD. another mom may twist that into her being non binary or something. I KNOW mothers like this and it’s nuts. Just let the kid be a kid. Stop with the labels. [/quote] My high school student (bi) has many friends who are lgbtq+ and their parents don't know. I'm having trouble keeping track of the name my kid calls them every day and uses when they talk about them at home and I use when they're at my house and the name they were given at birth and I have to remember to say in front of their parents if I see them. I think it's still hard to come out to most parents and the Instagram people are a smaller percentage than you think.[/quote]
