Adults overall

It's very invalidating when you tell us how we should feel, that we can't be who we are, or what our identities or pronouns should be. You can't change who we are.
Don't tell us we should wait until we're older because we're too young to know ourselves.
Don't ask other people about our identities, especially if they're straight or cis; ask us.
It's exhausting to have to constantly justify myself.
I don't owe you androgyny.
"I'm allowed to be me."

Parents

Your kids are not your possessions to shape into your own image.
