Coming Around: Parenting Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgender Kids

"I'm gay." When a child confides these words to a parent, they can totally transform the relationship. Whether that results in a closer bond or a broken one is dependent upon the parent's ability to accept, nurture and honor the child, whatever his or her sexual orientation.

Coming Around is a resource for understanding and coming to terms with a child's sexual orientation and maintaining a dialogue between parent and child. With compassion and wisdom, Dohrenwend addresses parents' fears regarding what to say and what not to say, bigotry and social and religious prejudice, the legal issues facing LGBT individuals and how to understand homophobia.

Most important, she shares how to communicate that, whatever happens with a child's sexual or gender choice, parents will never withdraw their love.
