Family Journey: Raising Gender Nonconforming Children, The

“The Family Journey: Raising Gender Nonconforming Children” charts the emotional and intellectual transformations parents and siblings must make in order to successfully nurture their gender nonconforming family members. In frank, vulnerable interviews, families from all over the country speak about the power of love and acceptance to help their unusual children thrive. They also come to realize that loving a gender nonconforming child, in the face of ignorance, and sometimes hostility, has turned them into more compassionate human beings.
