Thank you for these wonderful insights. I am an entp married to an intp. My husband and I are both artists and have one girl aged 18 istj and one transgender intp age 21. We have parented in all the ways you have pointed out allowing our kids to grow and be themselves.
I was exhausted and still am sometimes with the complexities requiring me to set my needs aside to attend to them as a parent. But I do believe we have done a great job and not burdened them with our own issues. They have grown into fascinating beings. Now that they are moving into adulthood it's still challenging but much more interesting and more free time for us to be ourselves.
