Re: Questions for Trans Teenhelpers - October 23rd 2015, 12:25 PM

While I am not trans myself, I am really glad that you are wanting to learn more and be supportive.

Do you think you could ask them some things you may be able to do to help? Let them know you really want to be there for them and want to know what can be done to help make them more comfortable and secure. Maybe you can also ask them if they'd like you to call them by a different pronoun or name, and let them know you're there if they need. I am betting that while some days will be tough for them, but on others they will just need a friend.

You will definitely get a wide variety of answers from our users, as everyone has different experiences. I hope you get the information you are looking for.
