It's a complicated story, about love and losses, self-love and change. (I didn't like that the only way the little brother could give support to his trans sibling was to get in a physical fight, as though his toughness and machismo were signs of brotherhood and not just toxic masculinity... What if the little brother had been really injured? But no he's so tough and brushes off Nathan's wound dressing and expression that there shouldn't be a repeat...reinforcing weird stereotypes).
I liked the complexity of the mother's point of view, it felt sensitively treated, not just straight up and easy for her and also not entrenched in transphobia...just a mother learning something about someone else's path.
