Join gender education specialist Aidan Key with Gender Diversity in examining the topic of gender diversity in children and teens, the challenges faced by these children youth and their families, exploring current research and identifying the best approaches for creating inclusive, supportive environments for these children.
In our TWO PART WEBINAR, Aidan Key will address several key objectives (as well as several more):
- Increasing familiarity with terminology and concepts related to gender diversity, specifically transgender, gender diverse, and non-binary youth by establishing a framework of gender and core gender terminology.
- A comprehensive delineation of gender identity and gender expression as it relates to, and is distinctive from, biological sex and sexual orientation.
- Overview of gender diverse children in today’s society as well as past perspectives.
- Barriers to understanding and myths associated with gender diverse populations.
- Understanding the experiences of gender diverse youth and their families.
- Increased confidence and tools for having age-appropriate conversations about gender diversity with children of all ages.
- How to best support gender diverse students and their families.
Kids have questions. Adults have questions. We can get them answered in Session 2! NOW IS THE TIME to get clarity from a reliable source.
Questions may arise like these:
- How can a child be transgender or gender diverse?
- Aren’t they too young to know?
- Shouldn't they wait until puberty?
- What if this is a phase? They seem pretty confused. Are they just trying to get attention?
- Is it alright to talk with children about this and what is age-appropriate?
- How is this different from being gay?
- I hardly know what it means to be transgender, what do they mean by genderqueer, pansexual, asexual, non-binary, and gender fluid?
- What about bathrooms, locker rooms, overnight trips, sports and other gender-segregated spaces?
- How do I handle teasing or bullying?
If you already have questions, please include them in your registration so the presenters can prepare in advance.
