Tiny Conversations

22. Having a Transgender Partner and Parent with Alison and Jonah Brooks


Listen Later

On this episode of Tiny Conversations I talk to Jonah and Alison Brooks about having a transgender parent and partner. I wasn’t until Dee and Alison were married, and Jonah was born, that Dee realized she was transgender and came out to both Alison and Jonah.

On this episode I talk to Alison about what it was like to learn this about her partner and go through a divorce. I ask Jonah what it was like for him to learn about this at age 6, and what it’s like for him now at age 11.
