David Atherton, winner of the 2019 Great British Bake Off, has just published a new kids’ cookbook full of tasty recipes, seasoned with a dash of LGBTQ Pride! Here’s an exclusive sneak peek! (And if you missed the two-dad family in his previous kids’ cookbook, I have a look at that, too.)
Parenting can be challenging. And parents can be challenging. Both struggles were highlighted in the third episode of this season’s LW:GQ, featuring Actual Queer Parent™ Kehlani. Let’s explore—and look at some real-life resources.
Looking for LGBTQ-inclusive, holiday-themed books for kids? There may not be as many as we’d like, but there might be more than you think!
Today is World AIDS Day, a time to remember that HIV/AIDS continues to shatter lives, families, and communities, even as other pandemics take hold. Since this is a parenting blog, I’m once again sharing how HIV/AIDS has impacted children and parents around the world.
Today is Giving Tuesday, but I’m not going to ask you to give to any particular organizations. (There are any number of good ones to support with your time and/or money, and I hope you do.)

College drop off can be tough, and the third season premiere of The L Word: Generation Q gave me flashbacks. As always, I’m here with commentary on the LW:GQ parenting storylines.
As the LGBTQ community collectively reels from and responds to the mass shooting in a Colorado Springs LGBTQ nightclub yesterday, I want to offer a few resources for those of us whose children may have fears or questions about the tragedy.
Today marks the Transgender Day of Remembrance, a time to honor the lives of those who died because of anti-transgender hatred or prejudice. I wish all of my transgender friends and readers love and support on this day of mourning.
Sixteen years ago today, my spouse and I got legally married after 13 years together—three years to the day after the ruling that made Massachusetts the first U.S. state to have marriage equality. And today, the U.S. Senate could act on a bill to ensure that our marriage will remain legal. I can’t believe that’s even in question, but here we are. It’s a propitious date, however, for even more reasons.
