This book is for all queer parents who want to have their story reflected back at them … it is also for gay parents to learn from lesbian parents, for cis parents to learn from trans parents and for all of us to recognize how we can stand together.

Introduction
Becoming a parent can be scary and isolating. As you tackle this new adventure, you may feel yourself lost among challenges you didn't even know existed, and being a queer parent comes with its own unique set of challenges.
In their 2023 book, Stu Oakley and Lotte Jeffs, co-hosts of the award-winning podcast Some Families, aim to help new queer parents feel more at ease in their new role.
The Queer Parent is an alphabetical guide that covers the unique challenges parents in the LGBTQIA+ community face, from surrogacy and adoption to difficult conversations about gender, race, and societal stigma.
