Managing transgender issues is a difficult task.

Whatever your feelings are about transgender people, you have to admit that it is a difficult task as a parent to ensure that your children feel accepted, especially in a world that seems hellbent on making them feel insecure. Even if we exclude the issue of transgender people from this story, every parent will admit that it is a difficult task to ensure that all of your children feel equally loved and are not left out.

While every parent will swear up and down that they do not have a favorite child, this is not always the case. And children can usually tell by the preferential treatment given to one of their siblings. That is why, most of the time, the eldest and youngest child receive the most attention, while the middle child feels excluded. However, this story is a little more complicated. And it may be difficult to determine who is correct and who is incorrect.

Most people have different perspectives on this issue, but one thing is certain: Susan should never have made transphobic remarks to her sister. Whatever happens with the other heirlooms, Susan deserves to be grounded and taught to apologize because this kind of behaviour is never acceptable. And it appears that there is something more going on than just the necklace. Jessica appears to believe that her family does not treat her as the eldest daughter. Susan, on the other hand, appears to be having issues with her sibling.

Most people seem to agree that she is in a difficult situation.
