Love Makes a Family by Gigi Kaeser; Peggy Gillespie

Love Makes a Family

Portraits of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Parents and Their Families

Gigi Kaeser; Peggy Gillespie

This volume combines interviews and photographs to document the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered parents and their children. It allows all of the family members to speak candidly about their lives, their relationships and the ways in which they have dealt with the pressures of homophobia. Included in the book are people from a diverse array of racial, ethnic and economic backgrounds, representing a wide range of family structures. Together, they provide clear evidence that family roles and responsibilities need not be based on gender, and that children thrive in an atmosphere in which understanding, respect and love transcend the prejudices of the day.
