How Gender Identity Develops in Childhood

Psychologist Dr. Andrew Sodergren joins Trending with Timmerie to discuss how gender identity develops in childhood and what parents can do in the face of the rapid onset of LGBTQ (3:27). Research is clear that mental health is not improving when a person socially transitions to LGTBQ. How does this fit with what Catholicism says about transitioning? (23:57) Peter Atkinson discusses the new family audio mystery On the Night Train by the Merry Beggars (39:20)
