Arwyn at Raising My Boychick has a good post up about an event in Portland in the US called Transgender Child Awareness Week run by TransActive, a group for trans/gender-nonconforming children in the Pacific Northwest.  What I like best about this post is that she's moved beyond acceptance into radically transforming the way she parents by incorporating the possibility from the start that her child might be trans, and that this is perfectly fine.
