In the Life Media has produced the first It Get's Better video featuring the parents of transgender children. The parents are members of PFLAG's support group for families of transgender children, which I am proud to have had a hand in creating back in the mid-90s.
Families with transgender children must confront binary perceptions of gender, widespread transphobia and controversial parenting decisions. But with education and support, these parents are proof that it really does get better.
--In the Life
Those early days were very difficult. I was scared. I felt alone. I felt somehow responsible for having done this to my child.
