Do you think trans children grow out of being trans?
Someone close to me has a child that came out as trans. They are waiting to tell others in the family this "just in case" their child changes their mind or grows out of it. In my experience I came out twice, the first time at a young age and was repeatedly dismissed that it was a phase and was told not to tell others in the family, I went back into the closet, the second time I was much older and felt I had wasted my twenties after letting family gaslight me into thinking they knew me better than I knew myself. That's just me, I know others who thought they were trans and later realized they weren't, but I want to know how common do parents think it is for their child to not actually be trans after coming out.
*I will report any transphobic or hateful comments, you can make your point without being impolite. This isn't a debate on everything transgender, only about if parents believe their children when they come out or if they have doubts.
