Glad to have you with us!
Yes, some parents get it and would much rather have a happy kid rather than lose them altogether. On the other hand, many are still stuck in the notion that gender and sex mean the same thing. Meanwhile, their kids are suffering. Anyway, I think your knowledge will be a very good addition to the membership.
I encourage everyone to seek out their local communities as it is a great way to combat isolation and also a good opportunity to share what we’ve learned. Are you connected to your local community?

Ashley,
Sounds to me as you have a core of supportive people around you who love you and nurture you. Many would he envious of you, trans or cis. You didn’t divulge your current age or where you are at in your life’s journey.
I wish you happiness in all you do, and have a wonderful and fulfilling new year.
