Celebrate Your Trans Child

sábado, el 23 de junio de 2018 a las 11:00–12:20 PDT
Oak
Workshop Description

Take parenting skills to the next level and learn to not only accept and love your transgender child, but also celebrate who they are. Often parents feel that the parenting rules and skills they've acquired no longer apply when they are faced with a transgender child. Roz Keith's motto is "parenting is parenting." Each child is different and has a unique personality and responds to different parenting styles. That doesn't go out the window if your child is trans. It just adds another layer to the dynamics and often creates a more challenging situation for parents.
