Dear Schuyler episodes
- My kid told me they're trans—now what? ✶ with Gregor Bailar
Many parents are caught off-guard when their child reveals they are trans. That's why Schuyler is kicking off the series by answering a question that is near and dear to his heart: "My kid told me they're trans. Now what?"
To gain some insight, Schuyler invites someone on to the show who did a pretty great job handling the news: his father, Gregor Bailar. Gregor discusses what was going through his mind during different points of Schuyler's gender journey, and explains how he was able to accept Schuyler for who he is.
