| Abstract | The Talvarez family has gone to great lengths to make sure their children get to choose their gender identities free from outside influences. They did not include the gender of their children on birth announcements, named their children gender-neutral names, and plan on letting their children make all of their own choices about gender. While the parents see this approach of allowing their children the freedom to create their own gender identities instead of allowing society to dictate who they should be and how they should act, some child psychologists warn that this approach is not without risks to children. |
