| 0:00.0 | So we've have another question here and I'm going to read it out. |
| 0:05.0 | Could you suggest some questions for us and other parents to pose or some topics to bring up with our child's therapist or psychologist. My husband and I have never met or spoken with this |
| 0:15.9 | therapist who has been working with our 21 year old FTM child for a year in another state, and we would like to vet her. |
| 0:25.0 | We've recently told our daughter that going forward we expect to be included on a joint session every few months |
| 0:31.0 | so that we may be included in her care and understand how she's being treated. |
| 0:35.6 | We pay for all her therapy out of pocket. We assume this therapist is affirming based on comments from her daughter, |
| 0:42.4 | but we do not know. Our daughter has |
| 0:44.9 | recently told us that I, her mother, am a huge topic in her sessions which take |
| 0:48.9 | place via Zoom and our daughter often gets so upset that she leaves the session early by closing the laptop. |
| 0:55.0 | Thank you. |
| 0:57.0 | Yeah. |
| 1:00.0 | What do you think? That's your straight reaction? |
| 1:03.0 | This reminds me of another question that I answered recently, which this may be the same family. |
| 1:09.0 | You know, there's so much that comes to mind there. |
