Who Am I?
The process of coming out is described as a developmental stage model that involves several stages, starting with identity and orientation confusion, where the child realizes they are different from their peers.
In this episode, Heather talks about Stage 1 of the Coming Out process when your child starts to realize they are different from their friends and will find themselves in a place of denial. Seek guidance from LGBTQ advocates and educators as it is important for you to be aware of your child's internal struggles and emotions during this process.
