One things for sure, dont give up!! its hard to be patient, i know how it feels to want nothing more than to fully transition right this second, but no matter how long it takes for you to be able to do it it'll be worth it, with or without your moms support.

Sweetie, I'm 60 and I still get scared a lot. Don't feel alone. Just remember you can do this, you will do this. It is not easy but seek out support where you find it. (Coming here for one) It will be okay.

Thankyou Moni. x

Erintilly.  Here are a couple letters of communication to parents to give you an idea of how to approach your Mum in your next conversation. I take it you are in the UK or Austrailia based on we don't call Mom's, Mum's here. Encourage your Mom to take you to a youth support group. It would be a big help to both of you. For you, just knowing you are not alone is a big confidence builder. For your Mom, interaction with other Moms to help her understand that her feelings are unjustified as this is a very real situation that she must address.

Hope you can get her to join you. The road is hard enough without having to deal with parents reluctance. As a parent myself, my biggest concern is that my kids, live their lives, not mine. Best of luck to you sweetie.

As the mom of a transgender daughter who just came out to me 3 months ago, my advice is to give it time with your mum.  I'm sure this is all new to her and she is going to need some time to adjust.  I think the best thing you can do is to keep communicating with her and try to help educate her, not only about what it means to be transgender, but also educate her about how you are feeling.  Good luck.
