It's better than being a tree

I understand that many parents have problems accepting the trans nature of their children.   I can understand that, I did have occasion a while back to work with the father of a former colleague who had subsequently transitioned, they were estranged.   The father felt betrayed, in some way as though it was his masculinity that was being denied.   Reading others blogs I hear of similar situations where parents cannot accept that their own children are still good people, just not of the gender they may have appeared.   I know we are out of the ordinary, but there are worse situations to find yourself in.
