Hi Stephanie- as an ex Portlandian, I have many friends still there. One current is just getting word his wife of 20 years is now a lesbian and wants out. One child is devestates. The other is full psyop’d accruing street cred with an LGBTQ parent now being celebrated and is numb to the dads feelings. He has nowhere to turn and needs someone to talk with honestly- as you know- being honest in Portland is unacceptable and bigoted these days if you raise any issue and she wants a family therapist to help them through and he knows he just has to suck it up and recite the proper allied response
Please. Please
Any recommendations for anyone for him to talk with or book or podcaster etc
I’ve turned him into your podcast also as resource
Thank you in advance for any consideration and suggestions
Thank you for your important work, Stephanie. I have learned a lot from your interviews and am glad to have supported you. But, since you have shifted your focus to your ROGD Parents work, I have decided to end my support here at Locals. Godspeed.
I want to thank each of you for your time here, encouragement, and donations.
You've probably noticed it's pretty quiet around here, without much happening. In contrast, the ROGD Repair Course and Community, for parents of gender-confused youth, has been getting a lot of active engagement. It addresses a powerful need and gives its participants a lot to work with.
So, I've been thinking about migrating the perks of Locals membership over to ROGD Repair and closing this site down after a while. If I do that, it means ROGD Repair members get access to new episodes early, and opportunities to ask questions of future guests.
Please feel free to share your feedback and thoughts on this. I don't expect to see much come in, since it's so quiet here. That, itself, would be feedback for me to consider too.
If you want to join ROGD Repair but haven't yet, and have been a loyal Locals subscriber or otherwise donated, please email [email protected] and I'll make sure you have a coupon ...
