I'm just Anneke: When 12-year-old tomboy Anneke has an identity crisis at the onset of puberty, her doctors put her on Lupron, a hormone blocker that temporarily delays the hormones of adolescence to give her more time to make a decision on who she wants to be. Family journey: Families across the country discuss the emotional and intellectual transformation that the parents and siblings must go through in order to successfully nurture their gender nonconforming family members. Becoming Johanna: How does it feel when your mom prays everyday for you to be someone else? That's the struggle Johanna, a 16-year-old transgender Latina faces. After prayer doesn't changer anything, Johanna's mom tries therapists and a mental hospital in her quest to "fix" her daughter's gender identity. At school, Johanna isn't allowed to use the girl's bathroom and when she fights back, she gets expelled. Creating gender inclusive schools: What happens when you talk about gender with elementary school students?
