1.) Haunted campout in a northern forest where strange beasts lurk in the distance and whispers of the unquiet dead keep you awake through the long dark night 2.) The Joker is probably getting ready to murder you horribly in an abandoned warehouse 3.) Killer Croc hunts you through the Gotham sewers, occasionally eating corpses 4.) Man has pleasant vanilla sex with a monster in cheap motel bed 5.) You’re the last gunslinger marching across a dreary wasteland after the world has moved on, pursuing the man in black across the desert while the machines of the old world still hum their death throes
happy no but seriously imagine it eve everyone!!!!
Floating face down in a blank word document file, while not physically possible, is nevertheless a tangible authorial state.
ok but if letting your kid use a different name & different words & wear different clothing is scientifically likely to improve their health & happiness and lower their risk of suicide, whether or not they change their minds later….does it really matter whether you personally “get it”? does it even matter if you’re comfortable with it?
if you’ve got all this science telling you that letting your kid do these things is going to make them happier & healthier than not letting them….then just tell them it’s ok.
it’s not your kid’s job to be the child you wanted. it’s your job to make choices that allow them to be the happiest version of themselves. make sure your kid knows that you will love and support them no matter what gender they present as. make sure they know they don’t have to hide.
