I Realize That I

I realize that I need to be more of a support to my transgender teenage grandson than I have been. After doing so much research research on transgender teens and children I now have more of a inner compass to in all of the ways I can show him all of my support. He just came out and it is an adjustment from lesbian to male. I have so much catching up to do and watch my speech with him as he is sixteen years old. I am so proud of his bravery for coming out all on his own. I love him dearly and nothing has changed except his choice of gender.
 
I realize that I will most likely need to develop additional self regulation techniques as I add more things to my plate. So increased stress can be viewed by myself from time to time as 'trying' to main stream in my surroundings.
 
@gizmo: He can be happy to have you as his grandmother, he really can. ...I just thought about telling my grandmother that I'm bisexual and that I'm scared of men and already had relationships with men and woman...she would ignore it or berate me. She doesn't accept me as I'm now...and she would even less if she knew about my sexual orientation. ...that is why I'm glad for your grandson. :happy:
