We are thrilled to have Freddy McConnell on Some Families! Freddy joins Lotte and Stu to talk about his journey to parenthood and how he felt about his body being pregnant. Freddy also talks about the on-going court case that is now being taken to the European Court of Human Rights for him and his son, and the legal challenges and discriminations trans families face. The group also discuss and break down gendered parenting terms and how stereotypes can often limit parenthood, and look at how important it is to utilise the word parent and parenting.
Some Families is a StoryHunter Production
