Gay parenting is a topic on which almost everyone has an opinion
but almost nobody has any facts. Here at last is a book based on a
thorough review of the literature, as well as interviews with a
pioneering group of men who in the 1980s chose to become fathers
outside the boundaries of a heterosexual union -- through foster
care, adoption, and other kinship relationships.
This book reveals how very natural and possible gay parenthood
can be. What factors influence this decision? How do the
experiences of gay dads compare to those of heterosexual men? How
effectively do professional services such as support groups serve
gay fathers and prospective gay fathers? What elements of the
social climate are helpful -- and hurtful? "Gay Men Choosing
Parenthood" challenges a great deal of misinformation, showing how
gay fathers from different backgrounds adapted, perceived, and
constructed their options and their families.
