Thank you for sharing your story with all of us. Your words "gender issues are only a symptom of other conditions or social factors" is a very truthful statement. Please know that I support you and I am proud of you. It took a strong woman to write what you did, and I appreciate and admire you. Best of luck!

Thank you for saying all of this so clearly! This is *exactly* what I tell parents of the kids I’m working with. Especially the part about it being a family issue that has to be worked through in the family as a family. If I turn down a request to treat a kid, more often than not it’s because I get a sense that the parent wants me to “fix” the kid.
