On Being a Gay Parent:
Making a Future Together
This book by Brett Webb-Mitchell is a hands-on, down-to-earth, guide that answers the questions unique to the Christian gay parenting experience, On Being a Gay Parent is a mix of concrete information, illuminating anecdotes, and creative solutions. Covering ground you’re unlikely to find in other parenting books, Webb-Mitchell deals with issues such as:
- How to come out to your kids
- What to call either “Moms” or “Dads”
- Navigating the school system and the challenges your children might face there
- How the law around civil unions and same-sex marriages deals with children’s issues
- Surviving the holiday, when complicated family structures typically get more so
- And much more…
From running a household to handling a parent-teacher conference, and with an extensive resource section at the back, On Being a Gay Parent will answer the question you haven’t even thought to ask.
This practical how-to guide was published last fall by Seabury Books.
