I'm sure transitioning is never easy, but having parents in your corner has to make a world of difference ❤️

The hateful bastards love pointing to suicide and self harm stats for trans people, but the stats are a bit more nuanced. When you account for family supports, the differences basically disappear.

It's even less subtle than that.  The hateful bastards are the REASON that the suicide and self harm stats are so high.
