Video: Family Shares Story of Transgender Child

May 29, 2014

A family’s process of accepting their transgender son

Recently, the Whittington family posted a video online sharing their story about their transgender child, Ryland. Though they struggled with the concept of hearing their daughter repeatedly proclaim her gender as “a boy,” they researched and took steps to create a safe and loving environment for their son. Ryland is now a energetic and well-adjusted child who is happy living his truth.

It’s a rare success story that we hope will open hearts and minds to thinking outside pre-established norms. Watch their incredible story below.
