Between the Margins: LGBT Parenting Show

Welcome to Between the Margins, a show about human rights and people's pursuit of 'Happily Ever After.'

On February 15th, we welcomed guest co-host Fallon Cunning, parent of three, along with Michelle Boyce to discuss the topic of LGBT parenting. Special guests on the show included Rachel Epstein of the LGBTQ Parenting Network, Joan Wiley of TransParents Canada, and Freya, the daughter of a lesbian.  
A very special 'This is Me' segment brings us the voice of Jessie Boyce, a young lady who speaks out on her diverse family dynamic.   When asked what was the one thing she would like to say to her Moms, she replied, "I love you very much."
Michelle and Fallon addressed the issues and challenges of being a parent under the LGBT spectrum, from their own experiences and those of our guests, as well as the subsequent effect harassment, prejudice and intolerance, from society and schools, has on the wellbeing and happiness of their children.
