I announce a new scholarship program, made possible by a generous anonymous donor, which will allow 15 families in financial need to access the course for free. Please share this episode with someone you know who could benefit!For those who aren’t already familiar, I describe what’s in ROGD Repair, a comprehensive self-guided online course designed to help parents understand and improve their relationships with their adolescents or young adults who are questioning their gender identity. I describe how the new scholarship program works, and how parents in financial need with a sincere desire to engage in the program can apply.I discuss the importance of mindset and communication strategies, emphasizing that parents can control their approach and understanding of their child's state of mind. The program includes over 120 lessons, featuring videos, written content, reflection questions, and community discussions, all aimed at providing educational guidance to empower parents to make wise decisions when communicating in high-stakes situations.Throughout the episode, I explore key concepts such as the psychological dynamics at play in these situations, the impact of social contagion, and effective communication techniques that can foster better understanding and connection. My goal is to equip parents with the tools they need to navigate these challenging conversations and ultimately support their children's well-being. 00:00 Start[00:00:57] Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria.[00:04:42] Consulting parents of trans youth.[00:07:45] Reflection questions for family dynamics.[00:12:04] Scholarship program announcement.[00:14:42] Scholarship program for families.[00:20:36] Communication strategies with children.[00:21:39] Family...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/7R2fJL6ksh0-aqhZGIKVghpF0n5-RelfaD139dcIBCQ/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzI1NzQ0LzE2NDQy/NzA3NjktYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
