Participants of the meeting: two mothers from the "Open Parents" group – Natasha Kilber, the mother of a gay man; Natasha F., the mother of a trans person; Maria Sabunaeva, a psychologist who works with queer people and their loved ones; and Tatyana Lazareva, the creator of the "Where Am I?" project to help teenagers in emigration.
What shall we talk about?
"My child came out. I accept him, but I feel very lonely and afraid to share it with anyone else."
"My child is queer and I feel like I can't fully accept him. How can I change?"
"The child would like older relatives to be aware. How can I tell them, and should I tell them?"
"How can I know if my child is being truthful in identifying as trans? What specialists can help the child and their parents understand this?"
Come with your questions and topics!
* The Open Parents group (Offene Eltern) was created on the initiative of the organization Quarteera and two mothers with the aim of helping families with LGBTQ+ children living in Germany and speaking Russian.
