Transgender Is Not a Fad Or a Phase
Transgender is a real thing
Not a fad
Not a phase
Not a quirky attention-seeking ploy
Transgender children are sad
They want to be who they are
The wisest parents understand
If Johnny wants to be called Julie and wear dresses – okay.
Because Johnny is not Johnny inside, she is Julie.
If all transgendered children were treated with love and respect
If all parents of transgendered children understood this
It would be enough to change the world.
Transgender is a real thing
Not a fad
Not a phase
Not a quirky attention-seeking ploy
Please love your children for who they are
Please respect your children
Even if their ideas are different than mine?
Especially if their ideas are different than yours.
