Parents of transgender and gender diverse (TGD) children face obstacles related to stigmatization of their child, including potentially distressing emotions as they react to discovery of the child's identity and navigate multiple institutional systems permeated by cisnormativity. Parents' physical and mental health can affect their child's health and development. However, little is known about parents' emotional well-being as they raise their TGD children. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to explore the emotional well-being of parents who are raising a TGD child. Emotional well-being includes concepts such as the parent's perception of the state of their emotions, life satisfaction, and sense of meaning and purpose. Bronfenbrenner's ecologic systems theory (EST) posits that social and structural systems surrounding the individual affect their growth and development. EST framed this study by placing the parent in the center of nested systems that represent layers of the parent's environment. Additionally, transfamily theory was used to explain tensions that arise as parents decide to uphold or challenge cisnormative values in the systems of their environment. After approval from the New York University Institutional Review Board (IRB), participants were recruited from online parent support groups and support groups specifically for parents of TGD children. Parents or an adult guardian with legal decision-making rights for at least one TGD child 4-18 years of age were eligible to participate if they lived in the US and are at least 18 years old. In total, between June 2021 and August 2021, 18 parents participated in semi-structured audio-recorded Zoom interviews. Interview transcripts were analyzed using a reflexive thematic analysis approach and in consultation with two experienced qualitative researchers. MAXQDA, a software program for qualitative research, was used to facilitate data analysis. Analysis resulted in four themes: (1) entanglement of parent and child well-being, (2) impact of emotions about child's gender identity on parents' EWB, (3) increase in caregiving load, and (4) navigating social contexts and cultural patterns. Findings from this study indicate that parents raising TGD children often experience complicated internal processes, especially when levels of inner acceptance conflict with outward affirmation. Inclusive and accepting social environments (e.g., families, support networks, and geographic communities) positively impact both the TGD child and their parent, while cisnormative and socially conservative values negatively impact parent's caregiving burden and social support availability. Implications from these results include early screening for parents' EWB, increased support and resources for parents, and education for professionals working with TGD children and their families. Advocacy groups for TGD people may play a large role in creating inclusive environments and blocking anti-transgender legislative efforts. Future research should focus on increasing racial and ethnic diversity of samples.
