Résumé
Depuis 2011, de plus en plus d’études documentent les besoins et enjeux des jeunes et des enfants qui se sentent différent.e.s dans leur genre. S’il en ressort qu’illes sont encore parmi les jeunes les plus à risque de suicide, de violence par les pairs, d’échec scolaire, de dépression, d’anxiété et de troubles alimentaires, un milieu de vie qui les accepte et les soutient semble le facteur le plus déterminant pour leur santé tant psychique que relationnelle et somatique et leur insertion sociale et professionnelle. Pour favoriser un développement harmonieux pour les jeunes trans et en questionnement, une perspective anti-oppressive est aujourd’hui nécessaire.

Abstract
Since 2011, an upsurge in evidence has been documenting the needs and issues of young people and children who feel different in their gender. If it turns out that they are still among the young people most at risk of suicide, peer violence, school failure, depression, anxiety and eating disorders, the living environment (accepting and supporting) seems the most determining factor for their psychic, relational and somatic health and their social and professional integration. To promote harmonious development for trans and questioning young people, an anti-oppressive perspective is needed today.
