coming out to my son

[Christy Edwards]

First of all I do hope and pray everyone had a great Christmas. I did. I got lots of wonderful clothes that I cant wait to wear.

I recently got me a new cell phone and was trying out the camera. So I tried taking a pix of myself that turned out not good. I thought I had erased it,lol. My 11 yr old son was playing with my new phone and run accross the pix of me dressed. He later asked his mom about dad dressing as a woman. My wife played it off the best she could, but didnt work. This was Christmas eve day when he asked her about it. Soooo, I have another therapy session this wednesday, and I plan on talking to my therapist about it. But my wife and I think it's time to sit him down and just tell it like it is. I know this is best, and please wish  me luck.
I do trust my son's love way enough. So we shall see. I will keep all posted on this matter....Hugs to all....Christy

Christy,  there is a REALLY good video called "No Dumb Questions" that may be helpful in this particular situation.  Check it out:  http://www.nodumbquestions.com/.  There are also a number of good clips from it on  YouTube:  http://www.google.ca/search?q=%22no+dumb+questions%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#q=%22no+dumb+questions%22&hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=yts&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&prmd=ivns&source=univ&tbs=vid:1&tbo=u&ei=9VgXTfudMsOdnwfqkPC1Dg&sa=X&oi=video_result_group&ct=title&resnum=2&ved=0CDAQqwQwAQ&fp=71a2ab7042d6e8f4.  In the immediate term, the  YouTube clips might be helpful, and if I were you, I'd order a copy for home use...

Hope this helps...

I wish you the best, Christy.  He should be fine, as long as he know you will always love and care for him no matter what.  Kids are a lot smarter than people will give them, but at the same time they just want to know they are loved.

Good luck hon! You are very lucky that you have such a supportive wife that loves you no matter what the outside looks like.  I'm sure that things if explained well, will work out for you.
Best,
Stephie
