Going through puberty and adolescence presents unwelcome changes for transgender
youth, and this book provides advice to parents of transgender teens to help
them understand what their child is experiencing and feeling during this challenging
time.Addressing common fears and concerns that parents of transgender teens
share, the book guides them through steps they can take with their child, including
advice on hormones and surgery and how to transition socially. It addresses
the recent increase in teens presenting with non-binary identities, and reflects
major legal, social and medical developments regarding transgender issues. The
author's insights are gained from his 30 years' experience providing psychotherapy
regarding gender identity. He provides resources and further reading to help
parents expand their knowledge. Although aimed predominantly at parents, this
book is useful for anyone working with teenagers and young adults as it provides
many answers to common questions about adolescent gender identity.
