(NBC News) When California Congressman Mike Honda tweeted a photo of himself on Twitter back in February, grinning next to his beautiful 8-year-old granddaughter Malisa, it went viral right away — and not just because it was cute.
“As a proud grandpa of a transgender grandchild,” the eight-term Democrat wrote. “I hope she can feel safe at school without fear of being bullied.”
With those words, Honda had chosen to make a private family matter very public.
“I think that there’s a time when you have to determine when there’s…a good teaching moment. And I think that was one of them,” Honda, a former teacher, told NBC News.
