It must be so hard. So many similar stories. My youngest cousin has 6 year old twins, one of each, and I'm praying the madness will have passed by the time they get online. Thankfully I don't have to deal with this in my day to day life, though my early efforts to talk to my best friend about it were met with defensiveness, even though she doesn't know any trans people (and we're both 60). Interestingly, it took a close friend of hers getting trans-widowed for her to start being more receptive to me talking about it and accepting that all is not right with this movement, though if I bring up what's happening in schools I think she flat-out doesn't believe me because it's too upsetting to be true, or thinks it's extremely rare. Other stuff, like the stuff Genevieve Gluck is writing about, she refuses to hear, it's too dark. Baby steps.
