So, I’ve been debating whether or not I should cut ties with my parents for a couple weeks now. After the email I recieved today, though, my decision is solid. I may have two people who gave their genetic code to create me, but I don’t haveparents. I no longer recognize them as family.
This is what my mom sent me:

~ When you transition, it is all about you, you’re looking forward to the future, everything seems exciting and you’re generally positive about changes. But for other people involved in your life, from your parents and other relatives, to your friends and workmates, you are not simply changing into another person. The existing person they know you as is dying or is dead. They go through a grieving process which is necessary, in a similar way to what they would go through had you died instead. This isnt something people can help- it is natural. Only a very few people who are extremely mentally strong and equipped to cope with this will not feel the full effects of this grieving process. Indeed, you will even feel it to a certain extent.
You need to cut some of these people a fair bit of slack- the closer they are to you, the higher the chances they’re not going to take this well. Children, particularly young children whose minds are still open, seem to cope better. Older children, teenagers and young adults will struggle. Parents will be the most difficult as they have known you a long time and brought you into this world, and they will to some degree feel responsible for bringing this upon you, as rarely would a parent actually want their child to suffer. They may see your struggles and changes as pain you are inflicting upon yourself unnecessarily. And they will grieve the death of the old you and will need to do this long before they can begin to accept, embrace and perhaps eventually love the new you. In the meantime, tolerance is the best you may hope for, but you must also be prepared to accept they may need time to be alone to grieve and adjust, and for some, this might take years to complete. Sometimes, parents or children never get to that stage of acceptance and will never come around. But for most you have a higher chance of them eventually accepting and embracing you if you allow them to grieve in their own time and in their own way. ~
We do not feel responsible for ‘bringing this upon you’, but we also don’t want to see you suffer. So be a little more tolerant of your family and friends, and accept that not everyone is going to accept this. We have been very accepting and tolerant of many things, but this crosses both our lines, and we can’t accept it yet.
Our anger and frustration goes beyond the trans issue, and is about your immaturity, disrespect, being irresponsible, and never lifting a finger to help unless you benefit.
At least we won’t be embarrassed by your postings on FB, since you unfriended Dad without a word. I dropped my FB cause of not wanting to see ‘son’ under the family list. Same reason Dad did not put you on the family list. We had a daughter, and sadly feel you murdered our daughter out of selfishness. Many people learn to live with what God made/gave them, and don’t mutilate their bodies. You were a beautiful girl, our only child. Maybe when you accept how direspectful you have been to so many, (and especially me since middle school), life might be a little easier for you. You do have friends/family members that feel what you post on FB and what you are doing is vulgar and embarrassing. Not my words. Theirs, to us in private messages, emails, in person, and you can’t even imagine how all of us feel.
As for a son, that is not what I went thru 9 months of pregnancy, and the last 24 yrs, to accept this in this last yrs’. time. I see you in pics and memory of running around as batman, peter pan etc., hating dresses etc., and can see why you feel/want to be a boy, but that is not what we grew to love and raise from pregnancy.
We love you, I love you, but it is not all about you.
Love, Mom.
So. Can anyone blame me?
