DS (was DD) is 14 and trans. This is fine, we just want them to be happy. My DH and I have trans friends and are ok with this. I am happy to buy boy clothes and use the new name. We have another child who is autistic and can't get his head around calling DS a new name. We are trying to talk about this but DS just becomes enraged and shouts.
I feel like our home is a battlefield as DS lectures us constantly about being trans, wants all the attention all the time, wants special treatment from everyone. If we disagree with anything we are haters.
I am just exhausted with the constant round of appointments, drama, shouting and general patronising attitude from DS. I know this is just teenagers in general but I'm worn out. Both kids are hard work and I'm recovering from serious illness. I seem to have lost track of my own life as everything revolves around DS.
Any other parents of trans DC?
