  • LGBT Parents and Their Children Prepared by Melanie L. Duncan M.A
    LGBT Parents and their Children Prepared by Melanie L. Duncan M.A. & Kristin E. Joos, Ph.D. University of Florida Distributed by the Sociologists for Women in Society September 2011 Introduction Recently, international groups that advocate on the behalf of LGBT families have declared May 6, 2012 to be International Family Equality Day1. While this day is meant to highlight to increasingly visibility of LGBT families it is also a celebration of the diverse forms that families can take on. This is just one of the many changes that have occurred since the first version of this document was publishes, in 2003. Over the course of the past eight years, six states and Washington D.C. have come to legally recognize same-sex marriages, the Defense of Marriage Act is no longer being enforced, Don‟t Ask Don‟t Tell was repealed, and same-sex couples can now adopt in a number of states, including Florida2. Traditionally, depictions of the family have often centered on the heteronormative nuclear family of mother, father, and child(ren). However, as time has gone on we have seen that family forms have become increasingly diverse and include: single parents, child-free couples, parents who adopt or are foster parents, multiracial couples and their children, stepfamilies, etc. Parents who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT), and their children are contributing to this societal shift that is broadening the traditional and idealized notion of family. The presence of LGBT families in media, courts, and research has grown over the last ten years. What may have been a previously labeled as the “gayby boom3” is now becoming a more commonly recognized by individuals and professionals means of forming a family.
