In this thought-provoking and deeply moving memoir, psychiatrist Lisa Bellot recounts her personal journey as the mother of a trans-identified teen whom she did not believe was transgender. As both a medical professional and a mother, Dr. Bellot offers an insightful exploration of the moral, psychological, and medical complexities surrounding the treatment of trans-identified children. Through her candid reflections and professional insights, Dr. Bellot challenges popular assumptions, urging readers to reconsider what we think we know about the gender-affirming model and the polarizing landscape inhabited by the most vulnerable among us.
