Was just reading that the American Psychological Association had earlier disapproved of attempts to change anyone's sexual orientation, and more recently disapproved of attempts to change anyone's gender identity.... What I was referring to in my blog was the opportunity for parents to talk to their under-age children and youths at home.... Not for demanding change but just for showing support and asking to know what the issues are...? Perhaps the children wouldn't all be able to explain but I believe some of them could.... If some issues could get resolved, it'd be preferable. Anything is worth a try, in my opinion!
[For example, one transgender man said that when he was little, his mother used to make him wear dresses which had scratchy tags on them. He/she was physically uncomfortable! And I've heard of a girl who wore "scratchy tights." We should be able to find comfortable clothing for different occasions.... Of course, there may be a little more than this in transgender issues, but it might start with small things, for all we know!?]
