There's a noticable influx of trans kids in my job. Are there any topics I should avoid or considerations I should take into account when training them? - eviltoast

I’ve got no problem with them, but these are obviously kids who grew up in a different age than me, and it shows, I know what could seem a joke to me could come off different to them.
