'Essential reading for all parents and professionals supporting young people struggling with the issue of gender identity’ Louise PerryBeing the parent of a gender-questioning child is confusing. There is a lot of advice out there, but much of it goes against what many parents feel instinctively is the right approach. And the stakes are very high if you get it wrong.There have been many books written for parents who are facilitating a child’s gender transition, but almost none for parents who decide that social or medical transition is not the best option for their child.Written by three professionals working in the field – Sasha Ayad, Lisa Marchiano and Stella O’Malley – When Kids Say They're Trans is explicitly a resource for parents who want their children to flourish, but do not believe that hasty medicalisation is the best way to ensure long-term health and well-being.Parents who have successfully helped their children navigate gender distress without resorting to surgery and hormones have done so by actively taking the reins, not waiting until they found the right therapist or doctor. When Kids Say They're Trans will tell you all you need to know, and will give you the confidence to trust your own instincts.

En el interior de cada mujer habita una poderosa fuerza: un espíritu vibrante y ardiente que vive la vida al máximo. Sin embargo, las cargas de la responsabilidad, la entrega a los demás y las expectativas sociales consiguen que las mujeres enterremos esta parte esencial de nosotras mismas bajo una profunda capa de amabilidad.En este libro, primordial y significativo, que amplía las formas en que una mujer puede llegar a ser la heroína de su propia vida, Marchiano transmite bellamente, cómo reclamar lo que nos pertenece; cómo honrar, acceder y expresar positivamente nuestra ira antes de que se convierta en resentimiento; cómo poner límites y hacerlos respetar y cómo abrirle la puerta a nuestra creatividad e intuición naturales, que fácilmente son reprimidas y acalladas por expectativas culturales milenarias sobre cómo hemos de ser las mujeres en el mundo.A través de historias personales, mitología, cuentos de hadas y orientación para la exploración interior, la autora nos ofrece numerosos recursos para despertar los talentos perdidos y revivir la sabiduría, la vida ardiente y la vitalidad de nuestro audaz espíritu interior.
