I just signed up so apologies if this is not the right thread.
Short background: 13 daughter, came out as 'agender' 1 1/2 yr ago, now identifies as ftm, wants to use a new name. I've read a few of the stories, and they are almost all verbatim. She is also showing signs of anxiety.
She's seeing a therapist, who we vetted, and who we talked to beforehand.. she likes therapist, all good and dandy.
So the thing is, in my state, they have confidentiality after kid is 13, so we get no updates on how she's doing. What do I do? How do I know it's helping, etc?
Things are escalating, she wants to 'come out' to extended family, etc. Help.
