‘I’m a trans dad and I want to be able to talk to my girls about sex in all its forms.
How can I approach chats about non-traditional relationships?’
There are three things to think about, when you’re having chats like this with your kids.
It’s so important to teach our kids that they don’t have to fit into a mould,
and be who the world tells them they should be!
And that they can just be fully themselves.
And indeed, doesn’t the world tell us quite narrow, quite fixed things sometimes
about what s=e=x is,
and what gender is, and what relationships are?
But of course we know that the options for who we grow up to be is so much wider and wonderful than that.
So if we can chat with our kids about how the world teaches us very limiting ideas about relationships,
we can help them to grow into whomever they are.
And for much more about exactly how to have chats with your kids
in ways that leave loads of room for our kids’ uniqueness and the amazing diversity of life,
listen to this week’s episode of Sitting in a Car.
