About this episode
The episode discusses various topics related to trans rights, neurodivergence, and parenting while featuring a guest who shares her experiences as a queer mom.
In this episode of the Parent Advocate podcast, Lizette and I catch up on all the partying in the street she’s been doing, my kid losing school shirts and AirPods, and my final prep for SXSW. In Today’s Topics, SCOTUS weighs in on a California lawsuit about schools outing trans students, Missouri passes three trans bathroom bans out of committee under the cover of darkness, and NY AG Letitia James orders major medical centers to resume gender affirming care for youth. In this episode we're joined by Cora Davidson, a neurodivergent queer mom of two gender expansive kids, and get her kids' origin stories, navigating queerness and neurodivergence, and finding joy in small things. Finally, in Allies & Assholes, we celebrate Lyft for helping trans and nonbinary residents get around in Kansas, and drag Joe Rogan for using his platform to spew hateful disinformation to his massive audience. Stick around to the end for a '79 throwback with our outro song, Video Killed The Radio Star by The Buggles.
