Came Out To My Parents

This morning,I was thinking with myself "It's the end of the year already,and this was supposed to be the year were I would come out and start transitioning."

Thinking of that,I got the letter(my parents was looking for a remote control in my room and almost found it)put it on the table with a pink crocodile pin(the ones for food bags)so it would draw attention.I was not thinking at that point,I just did what I had too.

At school,I was anxious.Sometimes,I would think "I did it?I let the letter for them to read?am I dreaming?".

When I got in the car to go to lunch,my mother(who is a happy talkative person)was kinda sad and quiet,but still loving(asked about school,gave me a little massage on my hair,etc).

At the letter I wrote that my parents should wait until them both were at home,so she didn't said anything about(she is right next to me).I also said that I don't believe in God anymore in the letter,and now she asked if I pray before sleep in a very calm way.

I can't wait for tonight,maybe my parents will talk to me about it.

Bye

That's great that you came out to them, and while your mother may seem sad, keep in mind it's completely natural and normal. The good news is that she was able to respect what you said in the letter and waiting until your father is home too. If she had a real problem with it she'd likely have blown up and you'd most definitely know by now.

I hope it all goes well for you! Maybe if your parents have concerns or questions you could direct them here, specifically the parents forum - even if they don't wish to make an account simply reading and learning will probably help them tremendously.

Keep us updated, ok?

Hi^^

Yes I do feel better,I thought that she would start asking if the letter was a prank or something.I believe they read it by the way my mother was and that she asked if I pray at night,but still I really liked that she didn't said anything.

The only problem is that they are not very goo in english,but I already gave two pages of information about transsexual people.I don't know were the letter is now,I do believe they read it^^

I'm going to translate more pages about transsexualism after we talk(as I hope tomorrow)

      Good morning    I have a busy week. Six days straight of work, Sunday off and I work on Monday. We get time and a half for Monday and our summer bonus pay kicks in so I’ll be able to get more things paid off.  Each on gone speeds up the process.  And makes things easier for the next target.     @KymmieL I’m sorry this happened.  Maybe it’s time for a career change.  I realize vehicles and parts is in your blood but maybe something else would take some stress away.   well, I’ve got a dog looking laying at my feet hoping to go out.   Willow

      Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and physical changes like increased blood pressure.

      If you know who you are, you can get through any problem you face? Do you believe that?

Please note that you would need to send an email to receive the actual survey link.   Seeking Interview Participants for Research Study on Digital Spaces of Transgender Belonging What is the Study About? Over the past several decades, the Internet has fundamentally changed how trans people form community spaces, explore gender identity, and practice community care.

What Does It Involve? A brief (five minute) screening survey, later followed by a virtual interview lasting approximately one hour. You will receive $75 after participating in an interview as compensation for your time. Your participation in this interview is completely voluntary. If you choose to participate, you will be asked to reflect on your history with trans online communities and resources. Data Usage and Confidentiality Policy This research study is being conducted as part of a Ph.D. dissertation, which will be published. Raw or identifiable data, including interview transcripts and recordings, will not be made publicly available. Analysis from this study may be presented publicly or included in future publications. Further, your confidentiality will be respected during this study. The data collected for the study will be de-identified prior to any analysis, publication, or report resulting from the study.

      This will head for a court case and the notable fact that the people opposing puberty blockers is that they have not revealed their source and its competence.  It will be present the evidence and let your "experts" sit on the grill above the hot coals.

      Pretty typical for many nations.... corrupt police, and only great effort by the victim's family will eventually yield prosecution.  Conviction is uncertain, and sentencing even more so.
