However, I can't help but feel a tinge of disappointment that it didn't arrive sooner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe hosts of the award-winning podcast, \"Some Families,\" have released an informative, funny, and empowering book that is a must-have parenting toolkit for the LGBTQ+ community, their friends, family, and allies. This comprehensive guide answers every question you could have about LGBTQ+ families, making it a must-read for everyone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile LGBTQ+ people have more options than ever before when it comes to starting a family, a lack of focused information and mainstream representation can leave parents, prospective parents, friends, and relatives in the dark. Authors Lotte Jeffs and Stu Oakley, who have personal experiences of becoming parents through IUI and adoption, have spoken to dozens of experts and queer families to create this highly-needed book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile 90% of queer parenting is just like parenting in general, being LGBTQ+ when you're a parent does bring with it a host of unique challenges that mainstream guides, which often assume heterosexuality, do not address. From adoption, surrogacy, fertility treatment, and other routes to parenthood, to donors, trans parenting, how to deal with family-focused homophobia, coming out at the school gates, and much more, \"The Queer Parent\" is a groundbreaking toolkit for LGBTQ+ parents, parents-to-be, and anyone looking to support their journey. It redefines the family for the modern age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a game-changer, providing valuable insights and practical advice for LGBTQ+ families. It's a must-read for anyone who wants to understand and support these families in their journey of parenthood. I am so grateful for this book, and I can't wait to share it with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 510g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 145 x 224 x 38 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781035001828\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lotte Jeffs,Stu Oakley","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44235802640634,"sku":"9781035001828","price":14.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1683900549381_book.jpg?v=1684161275","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-queer-parent-everything-you-need-to-know-from-gay-to-ze-9781035001828","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
