This inspiring and moving story, told from the heart of an extraordinary
family, recounts the emotional and uplifting journey of raising a transgender
son. Janna Barkin's family has come a long way since their child, Amaya, first
told them he was a boy and not a girl and this captivating memoir charts the
family's experiences of raising Amaya, from birth through to adulthood. With
powerful chapters written by Amaya's family and friends, Janna shares personal
stories of the support and discoveries her family has encountered and provides
a 'care package' of advice for families facing similar issues, including a glossary
of transgender terms and a list of hand-picked support sources. Written with
warmth and humour, He's Always Been My Son reminds us to accept others for who
they are and will support, educate and inspire anyone who reads it.
