The book covers the difficulties and fears experienced in raising their daughter and also hope for the future. It was a very interesting read. ( ) Fascinating nonfiction account of a child that understands at a very young age the concept of gender along with the family that loves and supports the child. The language at times is beautiful and very moving. This book was marketed as a letter from mother to daughter. However, at times, it seems as though the author is more concerned with her highlighting her own scholarship and research. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

A parent's love letter to a daughter who has always known exactly who she is. One ordinary day, a caseworker from the Department of Children and Families knocked on the Hays family's door to investigate an anonymous complaint about the upbringing of their transgender child. It was this knock, this threat, that began the family's journey out of the Bible Belt but never far from the hate and fear resting at the nation's core. Self-aware and intimate, A Girlhood asks us all to love better, not just for the sake of Hays's child but for children everywhere enduring injustice and prejudice just as they begin to understand themselves. A Girlhood is a call to action, an ode to community, a plea for empathy, a hope for a better future. A Girlhood is a love letter to a child who has always known exactly who she is -- and who is waiting for the rest of the world to catch up. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
