My Wife Is Now My Husband & My Daughter Is Now My Son | MY EXTRAORDINARY FAMILY

WHEN Sammy, 25, and his partner, Miles, first met at college and fell in love, they were in a heterosexual relationship. Sammy, who was assigned as a female at birth, decided to start his transition after giving birth to their daughter, Hazel. Now identifying as transmasculine and non-binary, Sammy has been undergoing hormone treatment for six months, with the full support of Miles, who watched his wife become his husband. Miles told Truly: "He's a completely different person but I fell in love with him as him, not how he looked like." Last year, their four-year-old daughter started to address himself as a boy. The family living in St Cloud, Minnesota, say that their transition journey has been backed by their friends. But it has strained the relationship with some of their family members, who still insist on using feminine pronouns with Sammy and Hazel. The parents have also received doubts from people who think Sammy's transition has influenced Hazel wanting to be a boy. But the parents believe that they are simply giving Hazel the tools and space to explore himself at his own pace. Sammy said: "I have not projected any of my experience onto Hazel. What I have done is to provide a healthy example of a role model." Miles added: "Being a supportive parent doesn't mean making decisions for your child all the time. It means giving your child the correct information and safe space."
