I’m so grateful for this show. It feels like my only real resource as someone who recently learnt they were DC and it’s fascinating to hear about all the different permutations of learning that news, of family set ups (social and bio) and everyone’s individual thoughts on their situation.
Thank you so much

They have been advocates of telling and offer incredible support for parents. Also there is more to be told about the coun... more
