The gender creative child : pathways for nurturing and supporting children who live outside gender boxes by Diane Ehrensaft PhD
If your child is gender nonconforming, and you don't know where to start, this is the book. As a developmental and clinical psychologist, Dr. Ehrensaft provides us with the guidance to understand and support our children. We learn with the Gender Affirmative Model that gender variations are healthy, diverse and fluid. By truly listening to our children with an open heart, we can enable them to be true to themselves.
The Gender Creative Child: Pathways for Nurturing and Supporting Children Who Live Outside Gender Boxes by Diane Ehrensaft PhD
Super comprehensive - learned a ton in this. Skimmed over a lot of the clinical stuff and focused more on the anecdotes and basic information. Good start on research for my middle grade novel.
