I don't think anyone can answer that question honestly, particularly how they would feel. I have a 7 year old son who I love unconditionally. If he came home telling me he felt he wanted to transition, I would absolutely do everything in my power to get the support and information he needed to begin the journey and support him 100%' HOWEVER, I do not know how I would actually feel about it, I could give you lip service and tell you I would feel nothing or happy etc....but I honestly don't know. I would hope there is a support network for any parent facing this with their children too as it affects the lives of anyone close to a transitioning person. They have to change their whole perceptions too.
