The Whittington Family looks like a lot of families in America. They live in the suburbs, and they have two kids and a lawn to mow. But things weren’t always easy or average. Their first child, Ryland, was born a girl, but before long, she began showing tendencies towards being male.

After much research and consulting professionals, the Whittington’s took a chance, and Ryland began living as a boy. It’s been a massive improvement ever since.

The video explaining their process is beautiful and powerful. Take 7 minutes out of your day to hear this family’s story.
