Title: Funny how being Trans gets people to show their true colors
Post by: Reagan on August 27, 2012, 09:56:52 PM
So after 8 months of being out to my family the truth finally comes out. I'm not as accepted as i once thought. It has come to my attention that people in my life that I thought were important to me have shown their true feelings about me. Sadly they couldn't have the guts to in person. I'm astonished actually to think that I have exposed my true self to these people, to have the guts to do it and for what? These people had the nerve to go behind my back and say mean horrible things about me to my child. Family... Ha! Hardly the words I would choose.  As a parent myself, If my child were suffering in any way I would know. I would have the resolve to find out WHY! For forty years my parents witnessed me in utter turmoil. Did they have the resolve to find out Why??  NO! they didn't... So now they have the nerve to make a claim of me being an unfit parent. To tell my only child who I have love and cared for since her birth. The most precious part of my life. Tell her how she should be ashamed of me. seriously!  To tell her how they will try to get a lawyer to get custody from me and my loving  spouse! OMG! the balls of these people. I'm in no way shape or form a bad parent and to think that these fools could do  a better job than me is laughable. They failed me in every way. I truly hope that they are stupid enough to go for it. To waste their very last dollar on their moronic crusade.

I just don't  get how stupid these people are to not understand the bond that my child and I have. To think that this would not be brought up to me. To think for one minute that I'm so insignificant in my child's life that that she would be willing to go along with any part of this.

So I haven't confronted them yet and I'm not sure that will happen. I will probably just ignore  them until they die.

I'm sorry to hear that your family has disrespected you so. My father and step-mother told my wife and I that they thought we were unfit parents. Why? Because my daughter got a cold with a fever and my step-mom is a failure of a nurse (long story). This was not even in relation to any trans issues.

I hope that they don't press the issue just so you don't have to deal with the stress of the court system.

Best Wishes
