SO HAPPY! In one of our class assignment posts for a class we're both taking my mom posted her response, and mentioned me as her son! Male pronouns and everything! It was a discussion on gender, society and power. We are discussing Foucalt and his take on how how power is very fluid and easily transferable to certain parties. We read stuff about trans kids being accepted by their families and about some trans kids being restricted from expressing themselves.
I was really happy and almost cried when she wrote her piece. She talked about when I was growing up with Asperger's syndrome and how I came out a couple years ago. She only used my old name a couple times, and she basically stated how she was proud of what I've become. She may have over exaggerated a few things about my personality, but you know parents lol She was right in her post; I WOULD be embarrassed by what she would post. I was really grateful, all the same though. She's awesome
