There are so many questions, concerns, or just life issues that we face as parents. And just when we think we’re home free, looking to the great times, issues are behind us that we get hit with something devastating. We have no idea where it comes from. There’s usually a feeling of what have I done wrong. Perhaps nothing.
In this episode I have a conversation with Debbie McNinch about her insights into children dealing with the transgender issue. She is dealing with it in real time with one of her children.
Debbie offers heart felt insights as a parent of a transgender child. She offers sound advice for parents, grandparents, or even friends. She speaks to having a battle plan as we counter the attack on our children.
Debbie has written an excellent book called, “Battle Cry – Love Goes to War.” It is available through her web site and on Amazon. In the book she gives details on how to develop a battle plan and put it into action. It is a war, not a skirmish. And like a war, sometimes it may take a long time.
The 5 elements of her battle plan are Worship, Word, Pray, Declare, and Community. She gives the details of these in her book.
Debbie offers several valuable resources through her web page to help those facing this issue. Her web page is: http://debramcninch.com/.
We also emphasize we are not alone in our journey to hope. Debbie offers additional resources to help those feeling alone. The link is: http://www.battlecrymoms.com/ and http://battlecrydads.com/
