Topic:

My 12 year old girl wants a chest binder.

Although I am very accepting of my daughter, I have concerns about her making changes to her physical appearance at such a young age. Further, I want her to love and cherish her body. Honestly I understand her sexual orientation but am having a harder time understanding her wanting to change her physical gender. Any comments welcome.

  Your daughter is making decisions about how she wants to present to the world, but it is sometimes hard to know when to help and when to act with caution. Please talk with your pediatrician about your concerns. Medical advice may resolve your concerns.
  
  If you are uncertain whether your physician is accepting of LGBTQ, there are resources to help locate providers. Check out:
