About this episode
"In the end we just want our children to be happy, healthy, and see a positive future ahead of them." Scrapbooking our tweens, teens, and young adult children often comes with challenges as they explore how they want to show up in the world, not to mention our photos of them. So when Beatrice Semo's child (who prefers he/him or they/them pronouns today) came out as gay and transgender, new worries about understanding and acceptance were added to her roles as mom and memory keeper. In this episode Beatrice shares the story of navigating family photo displays, past scrapbook albums, and personal journaling during their coming out and evolving transition. She discusses some of the specific decisions that felt right for them as well as the grace needed to navigate these changes. This is an open-hearted discussion that highlights the roles of communication and collaboration in a new season of life.
