Colette has identified as a girl since she was 2, old enough to talk.

As a younger child – and even now to a degree – she just took it in stride that her body was one way and her gender identity was another.

COLETTE, 12, BERKELEY

She is a little rambunctious child... and she happens
to be transgender.

We noticed that she was so much happier when she had dresses on that we would joke that we should never take them off of her!

ELLIE, 6, WASHINGTON

I think our daughter is elated to be expressing herself as a trans girl.

I have no idea if this how she will always feel, but she claims that's the case. She can't wait for her hair to grow and enter kindergarten as a long-haired girl.

EMMA, 5, EAST BAY

Other people’s ignorance
is not an excuse to mistreat the transgender community.

Around 2.5yrs old, the twins were both starting to talk more and had begun identifying/ separating themselves and other people out by their gender.

JAY, 5, LUTON

It took me a long time to find the words to express it,

but I realized in elementary school that I was different from the other girls my age.

KYLA, 18, FRANKFURT

Nicole will be who she is and as a parent I’m just along for the ride.

At age two and a half, I recognized that Nicole, who has an identical twin Hannah, had a preference for toys and clothes traditionally thought of as boy toys and clothes.

NICOLE, 8, CALIFORNIA

I was very happy finally living as a boy, and I felt right.

I felt free, and I felt like me for a change.
