Perhaps the best defense is a good offense. Let the first time your child hears of trans/binary/gender ideology be from you, so that you can control the narrative and your child’s first impressions. Let him know that these people not only think differently, but will try very hard to make him change his mind. How does he feel about that? Is that a nice thing to do? From there, you can offer suggestions for how to cope with situations he may encounter. In a sense, you are preparing him for going into battle. Give him what he needs to survive.
