As a full-time public speaker specializing in spreading awareness and understanding of the transgender community, what Ben V. Greene hears most from parents and loved ones is the phrase "I'm sorry." They're sorry for using the wrong word, sorry for asking an offensive question, sorry for not knowing this already, sorry for asking a question at all. The combination of exhaustion from trans people who have become their community's designated educator and the growing trend of "canceling" anyone who says anything wrong has created a culture where people who have good hearts and minimal access to information are so afraid to make a mistake they don't even try.
In My Child is Trans, Now What?, Greene breaks the mold by offering a judgement-free guide to people across generations who want to support their trans youth but aren't sure of the best way to do so. Greene focuses on providing two key resources in this book: information and emotional support. He details what families can expect, what systems exist to support trans youth, and what loved ones can do to help. Using a combination of personal stories and experiences, key definitions, clarifications, and additional resources, My Child is Trans, Now What? is an essential guide for anyone looking to help trans youth thrive.
