I'm A Trans Dad & My Child Has Gender Neutral Pronouns | MY EXTRAORDINARY FAMILY

I think this video didnt reach the right audience 🫤

6:34 "I'm getting emotional over this nonbinary chicken."

Knowing how hard it is to have gender dysphoria wouldnt you want your child to know and be comfortable with their biological sex? Your child doesn’t have dysphoria, yet, they didn’t ask to be referred to in gender neutral pronouns. Why not default to the gender that aligns with bio sex as that will likely be how they identify, unless they ask you to refer to them otherwise?

Why do we force kids to be something that they are not..let them be a damn kid.

Just because a chicken has a atypical behaviors, it does not make the chicken non-binary. Non-binary is a human construct and to project that onto a bird is a bit of a stretch.

I’m 50 my sister is a year younger. My sister as a kid wanted to be a boy. My parents never blinked or made a big thing out of it and they never made anything of it, they just let her do her thing and i never thought it odd bc of them. She dressed like a boy she decided on a boy name and only answered to that and I still to this day only call her that name as it stuck and my kids call her that too. She also only did boy things. This went on for years until my sister hit teen years and then she decided she wanted to be a girl she grew her hair wore more femine clothes wore make up went out with boys. My parents didn’t blink or make a big thing out of it. It made my sister feel comfortable in her own skin to express herself with no pressures or feeling of disappointing loved ones. I was very girly and my parents didn’t blink on that either. They loved us and were happy to let us just be ourselves. My sister is a mum with her own kids. My sister and I are happy in our own skins through out our lives and that’s bc our parents never made any divide between us. These days everything is labelled and that in itself is a pressure. Let’s just live our lives normally treating each other normally no matter our differences and stop with all this over thinking. Seems more ppl today have issues than ever when I was growing up. I miss those more simple days

I think almost everyone in the comments just became def when Danny said “it’s all about having access to different things and DECIDE if that’s what they like or that’s what they like” they aren’t doing anything or forcing anything. The kid gets to choose and not be TOLD who they should be.

"My parents forced me into a gender that I didn't want. I would never do that to my kid! That's why I am forcing them to be gender neutral!!"

Danny, I commend you for living your best, authentic life. I may not understand everything, but I will never judge. I've never wanted children of my own, so I'm the LAST person to ever comment on anyone's children. My wish is that you and Wilder are safe, happy, and healthy the remainder of your days.

I believe gender neutral parenting is perfect for intersex kids

Danny is a very caring and attentive parent. His kid is very loved. Families ultimate goal is setting up their kids for success. Not all 'theys' are treated equal. A female born 'They' won't be perceived the same as a male born 'They'. That's the reality of the world. It's a double edged sword regardless how kids are raised. Growing up they'll still wonder, "hmmm why do others identify as boys and girls? Why am I treated differently?"

Wait, not the nonbinary chicken 🤣🤣

I think people totally underestimate children. I feel pretty confident watching Danny in this video that he would support Wilders choice at whatever point Wilder asks to be referred to as a particular gender. I see nothing confusing for a child. Children just want to be with their parent/s and be given the freedom to play and explore. What a beautiful childhood Wilder is having, a Papa that loves them, Liz and all those animals and that space to run and play. There are so many children in the world that are sadly having a difficult childhood, Wilder is not one of them. That child will grow up feeling loved, supported and is creating beautiful memories with their family.

Danny, you’re amazing. This is such a powerful testament to truly stepping up to the calling of parenthood by showing up as the best parent and best person you could be despite such difficult circumstances. I love that the universe brought you, Wilder, and all your farm fam together. They will be a much more open and loving person by having such an open and loving parent who lets them choose what’s true for themselves rather than labeling it prematurely ❤

What bothers me the most about gender-neutral parenting is that parents project their own experiences onto their children. Because they had issues with gender roles, they assume the child must feel the same way. It will figure out who they want to be on their own and this is where parents should be supportive. Children need a safe space at home, not gender neutral clothes or toys.

This has become beyond ridiculous.

Liberal and Trans= Mom and Mom

They are an amazing person and parent to their child. Best of luck. Great video. I support you and I think it is a great thing that you are doing.

I love Danny and their journey!! ❤ Since there's so many nasty comments on this which just tells you about why we need more representation and Shows how close minded people are, but people gotta realize that this is Danny's life and it's beautiful ❤ Just like they said, one kind comment can overcome all the negative ones.❤

I think when it comes to raising a child, I believe it is possible to scrap gender stereotypes or roles without necessarily raising the child gender neutral. However, I believe that Danny's heart is in the right place and that they are a wonderful papa. You can tell how much they love their child and just want what's best for them. I wish them both the very best :pride-heart-rainbow-philly:
