I am nonbinary, and I want to get a chest binder, but my mom believes that they increase the risk of breast cancer, she won't let me get one because her side of the family geneticly has a higher risk of breast cancer. Top surgery is unfortunately not an option due to the fact I am a minor., if anyone has any alternatives, I would be happy to hear them

kt tape works and is safe if you use it correctly, and layering multiple sports bras over each other (backwards and forwards) also helps. and loose clothing in combination with that works literal magic i swear

Layering sports bras works. Also try to find clothing that is either loose or designed to hide your chest. Dark colors, thicker materials, slightly oversized button downs, and hoodies work well. You can also try tucking in shirts, and adjusting it until you chest is more hidden, as this will change the way your shirt lays.
Additionally, you could look into chest binders, and provide evidence about how to use them safely, and how to avoid any health risks they pose, and present information to your mother, to attempt to convince her to get you one.

you could layer sports bras, one regular, one backwards, and wear oversized t-shirts and/or hoodies. dark colors and thick material is best. there are also specific tapes/bandages you can use for binding (like KT tape)
