There's a tendency in trans people's parents, when they are accepting, to still want an exaggerate amount of control on their kid's life. I'm not talking about the regular amount of oversight any young person requires, in fact most of the cases I am thinking about right now concern people over 20.

Do I think Brianna's peers, who may well have been similarly targeted in their own lives, may have a better grasp of what she went through and what'd help prevent it or not than the mother who's still friends with the parent of one of the people who killed her, you mean?

As a matter of fact I do.

It was like 40 people who left all at pretty much the exact same time. I cannot think of another work environment in which 40 workers/contributors all voluntarily leave if there were not deeply systemic problems with the environment. I don't think any of that is petty.
