I'm not going to write another article, but for the record I also think it's dicey to write about young trans kids with too much certainty.https://twitter.com/welovetheswitch/status/863831465511014400 …

I don't think we know how stable early parentally-affirmed trans identities are. It's too new as a phenomenon to know.
It's inevitable that one day we'll see an account by a kid who grew up trans, reverted, and blames parents for pushing them towards that.

Putting personal stuff in print is always a trade off. For advocacy reasons it's necessary to write sometimes about trans kids...
