      title = {Parenting Trans and non-binary children : exploring  practices of love, support, and everyday advocacy /},
      abstract = {Based on interviews conducted with parents of trans and  gender diverse children in the UK, this book presents an  account and analysis of the love, support, and advocacy  involved in parenting trans and gender diverse children.  Mikulak explores how parents negotiate and challenge  cis-normativity to make familial, educational, and  healthcare settings livable for their trans and gender  diverse children. By examining the educational and  emotional labor that parents perform as they advocate for  their children across these different settings, the book  will highlight the value of parental expertise and labor  while calling out the systemic failures that continue to  make this work necessary. This research will be of interest  to scholars researching family studies, kinship studies,  gender studies, and queer studies.
