A guide for grandparents of trans children, written by Janna Barkin - mother to a trans son, and advocate for gender diverse people and their families - with interviews and stories from grandparents and children, a glossary of terms related to gender identity and further resources and reading.

Be Love. Be Patience. Be Curious. Be Approachable. Be Supported.

Being a grandparent to a transgender child may feel isolating. Generational differences can make it challenging for you to understand what your grandchild is going through, and you might not have the vocabulary to discuss it with them or have peers who are experiencing something similar. At the same time, your love, understanding, and acceptance will play a huge role in the flourishing of your trans grandchild.

With up-to-date research on gender identity, letters and stories from grandparents on the same journey, resources for transgender youth and their families, and a selection of online and local support groups, this book provides uplifting, educational guidance on how to support your grandchild - and yourself!

Janna Barkin is a nationally recognized speaker & workshop facilitator for parents of trans kids and the professionals that support them. She leads support groups for parents/caregivers and grandparents of transgender, gender expansive, and questioning youth, and her blog has been published in the Huffington Post. She is based in California.
