Anyone seen the SubdayvTines piece on Carrie Grant & her family?

She has 3 daughters who are now non binary/trans & all are neuro diverse. Very interesting article about how they have navigated it as a family. I don’t have a share token as my paper is, well, paper. Happy to do screen shots though.

I find the casual use of the term ‘deadnaming’ in the article (or full stop) really horrible. My colleagues son actually died this week. Properly died. Forever. Dead is forever.

Deadnaming is such a crass term.

She periodically wheels her children out for articles like this

I don’t know who it’s meant to help….

I attempted to read it but managed about a quarter

I could not read that stream of twaddle. "I am the only female left in the family". The woman is totally out of touch with reality!

Along the way there have been countless challenges, from racism and bullying to mental health problems. All their children have additional educational needs and some are neurodivergent — their conditions include autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and dyspraxia.

Those kids need parents who are grounded in reality.

I haven't read it yet, but read a previous piece. I was shocked at how they were exposing their children to so much publicity. So many things that should be between them and their GPs only. Sad for the kids, hope they're OK......
