‘All This Time I’ve Had A Daughter, Not A Son’: A Talk With Parents Of Transgender Teen
Last December, on an early Sunday morning, in Warren County, Ohio, 17-year-old Leelah Alcorn committed suicide by walking in front of a tractor trailer.
The teen left behind a suicide note. Leelah was transgender.
The teen left the note on a social media website describing a lonely and fractured relationship with her family.
Leelah Alcorn wrote, “The only way I will rest in peace is if one day transgender people aren’t treated the way I was, they’re treated like humans, with valid feelings and human rights.”
Here in Atlanta, Georgia, Trae and Robert Baldy have a 14-year-old daughter.
They came to WABE and spoke with Rose Scott about their daughter Britt.Part One of the conversation with Trae and Robert Baldy
