Me carrying the fall issue of @RethinkSchools with me for the foreseeable future—
Me, to anyone in my vicinity: “OMG, have you seen this?! Pages 1-37 and 39-58 are stellar, but for some reason I’m drawn to page 38?!”

I don’t advocate for an end to oppression bc of some far-off possibility tht my kids will ask me one day “what did you do?” I do it for my own soul that shakes me awake every day demanding a response to my own beating heart’s query: what, in the end, is the purpose of this heart?

The ✨best✨ things about this:
1. Speaking about their child pre-revelation in gender neutral language.
2. Not pressuring their child to ‘come out’, yet preparing for in case they do.
3. Accepting new info AND then not misgendering their child.
4. Presence. Presence. Presence.

Now THIS is how a parent talks about their trans child, while respecting their identity to the fullest
This made me smile🤣 dad seems more upset he prepped for the wrong talk 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
