Congrats! That's awesome news! It's actually nice to hear you have so many kids and they're all accepting of you being transgender. That means their families are most likely the same and acceptance will spread like wildfire! You should feel so proud.

I was so proud my kids said you will always be our Dad because that's what you've always been, But you have to live your life the way that is best for you. Then my daughter in law gave me a bag of cosmetics. So happy your kids have decided to accept your transition, It makes every other decision that much easier.

Great to hear. Support from your family is important. Your kids love you as your self. You have nice kids. And daughter in law. Amazing feeling to be welcomed with open arms.

I am with you girl. I came out to my 3 grown sons about 3 weeks ago and they took it as well as can be expected. I dress "trans light" around them to help them get use to things. I was having some serious dysphoria by not telling them. I was afraid to. Like you I had read the horror stories and I love them dearly. I finally had to come out to them, it was tearing me up inside. Their responses were different from each other but all positive. I sat down with each of them separately just a few days apart. Once I told one then I had to tell them all as they talk to each other. It went much much better than I feared and my dysphoria disappeared. Glad things worked out well for you too!
