“Just simply by virtue of being a gender or sexual minority, your child is going to face more difficulties in life. But in truth, none of us have ever led a “normal life” because there is no such thing. Now is the time to give those dreams a good, hard look, grieve them for a while, and then set them aside to embrace a hope for the future based in your child’s newly disclosed truth. The dreams may change in ways large and small, but if you are there for your child, they are more likely to be realized.”

“Simple changes in how families respond to their LGBTQ children can make a powerful difference in preventing risk and building healthy futures.”
