I am also a parent of a transgendered child named Leah with me on here as a fulltime crossdresser.Leah is 15 years old and she came out 2 years at age 13.My wife Alley and I knew there was something wrong when she was 12 years old and holding on to this.It was finally when Leah was 13 years old that she finally did come out.Said she is really a girl from the inside and wanted to live her life as a girl.Wife and I figured out this was it.It got to the point she did not want to live her old life as a boy anymore.Leah is seeing a therapist and she was diagnosed with gender dysphoria.My wife and I still love her with our support including from our oldest son.Leah has decided she does not want to transition and we support her decision.Wants to live and dress as female.
Welcome to Susan's Place. You are the parent that so many of us wished that we had. Thanks to your understanding, Leah will find her place in life early and avoid the many years of confusion that she would have faced otherwise. Should Leah desire it, she is welcome here as well as there are others who live as Leah does. If there is anything we can help you with, let us know.

support is the best thing
Leah has great friends that support her as well,they see her as one of the girls.My wife and I like her friends very well.Leah looks up to me too knowing I decided to crossdress fulltime 2 years ago.
Have you considered blockers? She might not want to transition now but may change her mind when she's older which will be made harder by male puberty. Just a thought.
Leah is on the male hormone blockers now.One thing Leah loves to do is go with my wife and I to get our nails done together.One lady at the salon where we get our nails done likes it when Leah comes.Her name is Jen and Leah likes how Jen does her nails.
