Truly loving your child.

I heard the most beautiful, amazing story of parenting on NPR today.
Did anyone else hear it?
It was a story of two parents, coming to grips with the fact that their 10-year old son is transgendered, and wants to be a girl. You can read it on the website, but I strongly recommend you LISTEN to it, because the parents sounds so amazingly calm and accepting, it brings you to tears. It made me tear up, and I never cry at things like this. The only drawback to listening is that its long--20 minutes. (Thank god for NPR--show me another news show that would spend 20 minutes on one story during their prime news broadcast.)
The story is here: Parents consider treatment to delay puberty.
