This is Kane and their daughter Mackenzie. Mac is 13 years old and awesome. Kane is a graduate student, genderqueer, and a devoted parent.
But In 2006, a Midwest probate court decided someone who “doesn’t even know what gender they are” wasn’t fit to parent a child. Mackenzie was removed from the only parent she’d ever known, and sent to live with some disapproving elderly conservative Christian relatives. Kane’s struggle to regain custody has been ongoing for nearly 8 years now, with many
twists and turns and hopes and disappointments along the way.You can read more about Kane and Mackenzie’s struggle to bring their family back together here.
Because
of developments in the case and changing attitudes in the state, there
is new hope that Mackenzie and Kane will be reunited soon. However, they
need to raise at least $5000 for legal and relocation costs to get
Mackenzie home. No donation is too small to make a
difference.You can send donations to Kane directly via Paypal at atransdad@gmail.com or contact this blog privately for the link to the family’s
GoFundMe page. (For the sake of Mackenzie’s privacy, we decided not to
share that link on Tumblr, since it uses her legal name.) If you can
signalboost this post to your friends, that’s a great help, too. Thank
you!as a transgender parent this is my biggest fear come true. my heart is in my throat and i can barely breathe. please donate, and if you can’t then please signal boost
