Your mother was one of that vanishing breed of Irish women who lived not only for this world, but for higher things, and who knew the importance of duty, and of love for others. You didn't have to do anything, in my opinion, it sounds like she had it all figured out.

Absolutely brilliant piece echoing every single thought that has been rattling around in my addled brain for the past few years and as someone who took a 'sociology of gender' module in UCD ten years ago, there was nothing like the content our confused youth are being exposed to. A trip to an endocrinologist may also be the starting point to help clarify what is causing the gender dysphoria in the first place, and not a trend of referring children to the Tavistock centre in London!
