Thank you so much. This was what I needed desperately today. My son who sees himself as a woman is starting high school in August. His new tutor told me today that of course they will use she/her . I said that I couldn't do this and that I very much hope that my son will realise in time that he of course is a boy and always has been. She said that the chance of him changing his mind was zero and smiled. I have been good since Christmas, not crying, but she made me today. Such conviction, such nice manners, such cruel words. People who have no idea what it is like for us , what madness , you look at your boy, so innocent, so naive, so beautiful even with painted nails and long hair and small silver hoop earrings and a bra and his normal voice because he hasn't started hormones yet, thank God and you see your son, a boy, a boy, a feminin boy, not a she/her. Madness. Your story gave me back hope, I have only this child, I can never give up.
