Wes Moore went on the PBD Podcast, and in an episode posted this week, he answered a question about what he would do if his son asked him to transition to a girl.<\/p>\n<p>You can watch the full episode here:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Well first, I mean if it&#8217;s, you know, it&#8217;s my son, so I love him regardless, right? And he&#8217;s always gonna have my undying love. That&#8217;s, that&#8217;s me, right?&#8221; Moore said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to make sure that I&#8217;m involved in understanding where he is, how he&#8217;s feeling, the way he&#8217;s feeling, why he thinks it&#8217;s important. If this is a journey that he wants to go down, I want him to always be comfortable in his own skin and I want him to always know that he has a partner in me to help him along that journey,&#8221; Moore added. <\/p>\n<p>Host Patrick Bet-David asked Moore if he would advise his son to wait till he&#8217;s 18 years old. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I, if this is how he is feeling and I feel like I&#8217;m, I&#8217;m closely tied to him, I&#8217;m not going to advise him on something that he feels is at 14-years-old. But what I&#8217;m saying is the most important thing for me is I want him to feel safe in his own skin, safe in his own decision making, but also know that at 14-years-old, I want to be involved inside of that process as well. I&#8217;m not going to condemn him nor castigate him. I&#8217;m not going to kick him out of the house,&#8221; Moore said.<\/p>\n<p>Comment with Bubbles<\/p>\n<p>BE THE FIRST TO COMMENT<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not going to do anything that&#8217;s going to hurt him.
