The Missing Piece:

James, 8, loses a negotiation while talking to his parents Ben, left, and Sara Kaplan in the evening Oct. 13, 2016 in Berkeley, Calif. Ben and Sara's bed is in the living room as the family lives in a one-bedroom apartment afforded by the fact that Sara manages the building. Because of the lack of personal space, the couple have few places to retreat to to unwind and process the constant barrage of new information that comes with having a transgender child.
