Tumblr newbie; joined to follow this group. My daughter has GID. She's in her mid-teens and has been a tomboy since the age of 5. She's brainwashed by social media BS indoctrinating her in to believing that lack of self acceptance = you must take hormones and have srs. Like most of you, I'm trying to save my kid from irreparable physical & mental damage of hormones and srs. I've spent a couple of days reading these posts. Any suggestions for no-BS, valid, functional treatment for our kids? Thx

Please join me and other parents  on my WordPress blog in the About section. It’s where parents in your situation congregate.  There are lots of people in the same boat as you are, with new comments and parents joining daily.

I would try to find a therapist who will work with her on issues other than wanting to transition. You’ll need to vet them first. Be prepared to make a bunch of phone calls because it will be like finding a needle in a haystack. In my view, you need to make sure she knows how much you love her, but you won’t validate her idea that she is not actually female.  Support interests and hobbies that get her OFF the Internet and outdoors, or other places where she can ground herself in her body. You are not alone. Hope to see you here:
