Abstract
Objective: To analyze the social network of mothers, fathers or guardians of transgender children or adolescents.
Methods: This was a qualitative study, based on the theoretical framework of social network, with a focus on the primary network. The study was conducted in Brazil through online interviews between August and October 2021. A total of 30 mothers, two fathers and one grandmother of transgender children or adolescents participated in the study. The thematic content analysis was performed using IraMuTeQ software.
Results: The theme "The family as the center of the network and the challenges in achieving transgender autonomy" emerged from the analyses. The family was identified as the first network, bearing the greatest responsibility. Weak and conflicted ties with relatives, friends, classmates and neighbors, highlighting the role of men.
Conclusion: The networks showed limitations in providing support and the need for strengthening. The analysis is an important tool for improving care, structuring policies and developing transgender-specific care pathways.
