they still associate with her by her boy name but she is fully accepted.
her brother introuduces her to his new friends as his sister.
but its a little complicated because she only transitioned at 36. bit hard one day to start calling your brother by a new name, when you have been saying the old one for three decades.
and its a bit hard telling a 6 year old that he has done the wrong thing when he calls the stunning woman that picks him up from school in front of his teachers and class mates, uncle mark.
when she originally transitioned, she didnt take on a girl name at first, she still went by her boy name.
anyway, i think the issue getting a little side tracked. seems noone else on this forum has had a similar situation, where they have had to make the decision to tell friends and family that they are with a ts.
