absolutely this.Don't tell your friend what her daughter told you in confidence. That would be betrayal, and she obviously trusts you.
That's good she isn't following the trend but more because it's who she is, sometimes I wonder if kids know who they are deep down because all of this is being pressured onto them, an social media isn't helping, it's like when I hear little kids say they are the opposite so the parents jump on the whole trans thing when in reality the kid is too young to even know the difference between both, my neice right now calls herself a boy but everyone's a boy to herYes I think they also expect the get married, have kids ect. She has other siblings though, so I beleive theyll get that.
I do get what she means about the kids being brainwashed in a sense that they now have classes on LGBT ect half the girls year is either gay, bi or They/them.
This girl though has never followed the trend, shes always happy to be different. So I dont think this is a case of her trying to fit in because shes never wanted or needed too.
Yes I think they also expect the get married, have kids ect. She has other siblings though, so I beleive theyll get that.It's a hard place to be so I hope it works out an they eventually see that at the end of the day that's their kid an so long as she's happy then it doesn't matter who she's with, my mates parents had to eventually accept it when my mate come out, I think it first it was more disappoiment because they expected their kids to in a way follow their footsteps but my mate is extremely happy with her partner an her folks see that an are fine now, I think they wanted the whole grow up, get married, have kids, settle down etc but have come to see she isn't them an wants to keep traveling an doesn't want kids
I completely agree there is a lot of pressure and I think if she was 7/8 saying this Id understand her parents reaction, but shes 14.That's good she isn't following the trend but more because it's who she is, sometimes I wonder if kids know who they are deep down because all of this is being pressured onto them, an social media isn't helping, it's like when I hear little kids say they are the opposite so the parents jump on the whole trans thing when in reality the kid is too young to even know the difference between both, my neice right now calls herself a boy but everyone's a boy to her
