From surrogacy and adoption, to transgender pregnancy and finding
child care, parenting as an LGBTQ person is complex. This book is
an authoritative, comprehensive, and easy-to-read guide to
parenthood and family building for LGBTQ people. The path to
becoming a parent is complicated for LGBTQ people. Some LGBTQ
people don't consider parenthood because of stereotypes and
barriers, while others are interested in parenthood but unsure
about the first steps or overwhelmed by the path to take. Still
others are discouraged by the attitudes of their family, community,
or religion. This book provides LGBTQ parents and prospective
parents with the detailed, evidence-based knowledge they need to
navigate the transition to parenthood, and help their children
thrive. Dr. Abbie E. Goldberg, psychologist and researcher, uses
the results of her LGBTQ Family Building Project to help challenge
traditional beliefs that have often been weaponized against LGBTQ
people to prevent or discourage them from becoming parents. She
walks readers through the various steps and decision points in
becoming a parent, describes key research findings on family
building, and offers key questions and reader-friendly checklists
to easily enable readers to evaluate the LGBTQ friendliness and
overall "fit" of adoption agencies, health care providers, day
cares, and other institutions.
