@cpluto, as you likely know gender dysphoria is the feeling of discomfort or distress that might occur in people whose gender identity differs from their sex assigned at birth or sex-related physical characteristics.

Fellow members @juliethenderson @doslovesdogs21 @lrminkler might also have experiences to share with you.
In the meantime, former mentor @ayeshasharma shared a lot of helpful information for families of LGBT children in this discussion that you might find helpful as you and your child question gender and look for support.
