Her parents were supportive of Jazz's gender identity, but they also knew that she would face challenges in the world.

Excerpt
"I am the only girl in the world who looks like me. I am transgender. I was born a boy, but I always knew I was a girl.
I started transitioning to live as my true self when I was four years old. I started wearing girls' clothing and using the name Jazz. I also began hormone therapy to help my body develop more feminine features.
My transition has not been without its challenges. I have faced discrimination and bullying from classmates and even some teachers. But I have refused to let the negativity stop me from living my true self.
I am proud to be transgender. I am proud to be the only girl in the world who looks like me. I am living proof that you can be anything you want to be, no matter what anyone else says."
