53% of mothers who have children with Gender Identity Disorder also have Borderline Personality Disorder
Interesting findings from 1991, long before the current trans children craze.
This pilot study compared mothers of boys with gender identity disorder (GID) with mothers of normal boys to determine whether differences in psychopathology and child-rearing attitudes and practices could be identified. Results of the Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines and the Beck Depression Inventory revealed that mothers of boys with GID had more symptoms of depression and more often met the criteria for Borderline Personality Disorder than the controls. Fifty-three percent of the mothers of boys with GID compared with only 6% of controls met the diagnosis for Borderline Personality Disorder on the Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines or had symptoms of depression on the Beck Depression Inventory.

Anyone know more about this study? I wonder why findings like these have been completely ignored when ever increasing numbers of mothers are declaring that their toddler and preschool age children are transgender. I would be willing to bet the percentages of mothers with these symptoms are much higher today, and that it affects mothers of girls as well as boys.
