      My slow but sure coming ‘out’ has reached the point where I want to tell my kids. My daughter is 16 and my son is 10. How did it go for you? My wife thinks it will be ok, but I’m dreading it.

      I’ll let you know if it ever happens. My kids are grown and don’t know but, as my profile notes, I went inactive while they were growing up.

      FWIW it sounds like your kids are at a good age to hear and receive the news fairly well.

      Break-a-leg!

      Hugs & kisses,
      W.

      Not sure about my daughters, they are both grown and have no idea.  As for your children they are at an age where they may take the news in stride. I wish you the best.  Hugs, Allysa

      I have a 3 year old girl. My wife and I are educating her that all persons are equal and is rude to see them different because at the end of the day all of us are human regardless of religion. Race or sexuality. When the time comes, when she can understand how different people are I will come out an explain her what i do. Because honestly there’s nothing wrong with it. I shouldn’t be ashamed. Instead I should be proud of honoring women wich are the most wonderful thing. ❤️

        I have brought my kids up to do just that, we have same sex couples in our friend circle those questions are done and dusted. We have always given them that everyone is free to express themselves. I’m not too worried about my daughter, its my young son who see’s me as just a little under Superman and somewhere above Aqua man. lol

      There was something similar posted recently. You have the support of your wife in this instance which indicates they are ready to hear the news. Of course it is quite natural to have a bit of dread at the consequences. It just needs to be managed at the time and anticipate the questions and support after.  I hope it goes well.

      Helene i might wait a few years just in case one of your kids tell one of their friends. i have two adult sons both in their 30’s who don’t know

        I’m ok with that, I go out and about. I have reached the stage where I need to be completely free in my life. We are moving house next year and I have no intentions hiding away from the neighbours, I wont be advertising it but I will just go about my business. thanks for the answer.

      If you plan to live open then yes, it is time. Your sixteen year old probably already deals with or at least knows about gender issues at school, so she will likely be fine. Your ten year old will need some help and support understanding all of this. Both are old enough to understand this though I suspect the 10 year old may not fully comprehend it all.

      I have two sons age 35 and 37 respectively. Neither know, or at this point need to – they are adults, they have not lived with us for a while now, they have their own private lives. That’s an easy attitude to take, but I know the day is coming when they will need to know, and even tho they are adults I know it will change the dynamic of our relationship. Since I did not crossdress actively when they were young, I did not have the opportunity to tell them at that time. If I had, I would have done so – full disclosure is always best.

      I came out as transgender October 10, 2015 in front of about 130 people. Before I did that, I had the conversation with my daughter (then 40) and my son (then 34), 7 or 8 close friends and my then department manager. To the extent possible, I wanted people to hear from me directly and ask questions, if they needed to.
