This "give parents more say over their kids" is such *garbage* when talking about queer (especially trans) youth having the freedom they need to *be themselves*.

I need all my parent friends (queer or not) to get how very much they should be 100% behind "my kid doesn't need to tell me until they're ready to" and that being *their job* in this situation.

Make a situation where they'll want to tell you, yes. Then wait. They might still not talk to you. That's okay.
