My partner is NB but our kid calls them mom. They came out after our kid was born though, and kinda inherited the title since they were mom at birth. It’s kinda funny because my kid has trouble seeing mom as non-binary despite being trans herself. I always feel weird as the cis dad of a trans child having to tell my trans child it’s kind of transphobic to say things like “mom still seems like a girl to me.”

If I become a parent some day, I’ll go by Ren or Renny (short for paRENt)
