Straight Talk: The What To Do (And Not Do) Guide When A Child Comes Out To You.

In this book for parents, we are going to take a look at what you should do when your child comes out about their sexual orientation or gender identity. First and foremost: don't panic! As someone's parent it is natural that you would feel upset - but remember how proud of them they will be feeling in the moment. It really all boils down to one thing: accept our children as who they say they are without question; just like any other time something new has happened with them (lost tooth, first day of school). The more accepting environment we create for our kids now means less self-doubt later on in life which can lead into addiction issues such as anxiety medication abuse or even suicide attempts if not properly addressed early on
