However, many trans kids are still ‘invisible’ because they don’t live in communities or families where it’s safe to be out, according to author Ann Travers
“When we chose to support our daughter, she completely blossomed,” Michelle recalled. “To know that it was safe for her to be herself, she was able to really open up and embrace who she was.”
"A starting point for supporting the still-invisible trans kids is to stop dividing kids for activities based on sex and gender, Travers said. “You don’t know it, but it puts them in crisis.”
Mixed-gender sports teams, gender-neutral bathrooms, and a culture that supports kids dressing however they want, makes the kids who are unsure about their gender, or who are non-binary, feel accepted and included."
