A mother and her trans daughter navigate life together | Behan Box 

In this story, we profile a family in Guwahati and their fight against a school system that discriminated on gender identity. Indrani Chakraborty became a powerful ally and advocate for her transgender daughter’s rights. The 17-year-old Aashi* faced severe harassment and bullying in her early school years, but found strength in her parents’ support. From navigating the emotional challenges to standing up against school discrimination, Indrani’s journey is a rare testament to the importance of parental support in the LGBTQ+ community. As a parent, she went through her own transformation-she educated herself, became a public voice for change, and provided the safe space her child needed to thrive. The family’s unwavering love and courage have not only empowered Aashi*, but also paved the way for more inclusive conversations around #TransRights and #TransVisibility.
This video highlights the care, support, and kindness parents can offer in creating a supportive environment for trans children, which can further foster acceptance in society.
