Though this model of parenting may be unfamiliar to the average American, (and the specifics of this particular family are, of course, not characteristic of the entire LGBT community), to Kaiser, the strengths are obvious. As she says, “I certainly feel like I gained from being exposed to so many different and wonderful adults in my life. I think gay parents are more intentional on the whole than the average straight parent. Parenting is less done on automatic. Gay families tend to reexamine and reform traditions to the particular needs of their families and children.”
She’s not alone in this assessment, and research is beginning to back her up.

Just the bad bigots - anyone who teaches their kids to hate people for being who they are based on religious and or political lies, scare tactics and propaganda.
