My journey as an accepting mom to my non-binary queer daughter with transgender experience certainly has had its ups and downs, like anything else in life. Though this was a huge learning curve, as scared as I was when she first came out to me at 11 years old, I also knew intuitively so, that this was a gift to behold and it was up to me to learn how to respond and take care of both of us, mother and daughter. And that’s why I am forever indebted to PFLAG NYC for all the support meetings I get to participate in and learn from all the families, the parents and the kids, their stories of love and acceptance reflect my own journey. And that has made a big difference in the way I grow and supports my daughter along with all the queer kids in my world.
