Hats off 2 wife of the mind ❤️‍🔥 'We will never be able to defend the rights of transgender kids until we understand them purely on their own terms: as full members of society who would like to change their sex. It does not matter where this desire comes from' nymag.com/intelligencer/…

My mom, a retired teacher, was sorting through old boxes and found a story written by a 6th grader in 1974. A bit of internet searching and Mom tracked down her email address, reconnected, and mailed the story to its author, who is now 61-years-old. ❤️
