Same story, different state. Family wrecked, willing to love unconditionally if this had presented as the prior centuries of gender dysphoria have as opposed to going from shopping at Justice to “I am transgender” at age 13, and if my doubts weren’t confirmed by the experience of so many others. I am in the Dallas area and went to ONE parent support group where I was immediately given the name and number of an endocrinologist and a referral to the Genecis Program whose agenda is absolutely to transition these kiddos as fast as possible. I haven’t been able to locate the Resources tab, and am looking for a therapist in the DFW area that is willing to CHALLENGE the issue - not push it forward or condemn or bully her in the name of religion - but can’t find anyone willing to help me help her EXPLORE THIS while I still have some sort of control over these decisions. I am willing to love my kid no matter what, but what’s the harm in making sure it is what it is before we push the agenda of changing the course for the rest of their lives???? I have let my teen know that I will love them NO MATTER WHAT, but it isn’t fair of her to ask me to make a decision like removing breasts and taking away her ability to bear children. What kind of mother would that make me ten years down the line if she were to regret that decision? How could I ever explain why I wasn’t there to protect her from her? I won’t do it, that’s not fair to me and she says she completely understands. But why is it so freaking difficult to simply find a professional willing to assist me in challenging the issue for the sake of being sure for God’s sake? Can someone direct me to the resources tab, or let me know if there are any therapists in the DFW area that can help?
