There is the chance that your child doesn't fit into the constraints of gender roles like other kids might. They may play or dress assuming a gender role they weren't born with. When this happens it's very important to pay close attention to how your child feels about their body.
We understand how sensitive this transition can be. Let us help educate and guide you so you can make the best decision.
We specialize in helping to educate and inform you and your family as your child transitions. We offer many resources such as literature, private coaching, and various support programs regarding transgender and gender dysphoria. We aim to provide a loving support system for you and your family during while you figure out the best course for transition.
The most obvious is for them to tell you. This is often accompanied by children assuming other gender roles as they dress and play. Like a boy playing more feminine childhood games and wanting to wear feminine clothing. These are some of your first clues that should have you considering having them evaluated for gender dysphoria. If they feel that they are the wrong gender and don't like their body then they are most likely transgender.
