I have a child that is identifying as non-binary. This child is also diagnosed as autistic and suffers from depression and anxiety. They have struggled all their life to maintain friendships. They watch a lot of on-line content from other young people about how being trans and changing their bodies, taking cross sex hormones, etc has made them so happy, etc. If we try to express any questioning view to our child we are called transphobic and it quickly descends into an argument. We have been supportive and the given name has been changed to a gender neutral name and we try to avoid the use of pronouns at all.
Any time I ask for support I get referred to Mermaids. I have looked at their site and they are pushing the same unquestioning attitude I want to challenge. Does anyone know if there are any support groups for parents that offer a more nuanced view than Mermaids?
