Is it just a phase, a fad, or a real issue with your teen? This comprehensive guidebook explores the unique challenges that thousands of families face every day raising a teenager who may be transgender, gender-variant, or gender-fluid. Covering extensive research and with many personal interviews, as well as years of experience working in the field, the author covers pressing concerns relating to physical and emotional development, social and school pressures, medical options, and family communications.

Transgender is not the same as being transsexual. A transsexual was born one gender and transitions to the other. A transgendered person can be a man who is married to a woman. This man may dress in women's clothing, expressing himself as a woman at times. Gender has its roots in the mind, if you will. The transgendered person doesn't relate only to the sex they were born into. They may not feel comfortable in identifying with a sexual identity at all.
