ArticleWe know all kinds of families, and we expose our children to all kinds of loving families, including most of the types of families that your organization tries to address. However, most of the kinds of families you mentioned do not face discrimination in not being recognized by the government. For example, we know lots of single-parent families (Rob was raised by a single mom). Single parents and their children are not denied recognition to each other (for instance, hospital visitation, health insurance or death benefits). Nor are heterosexual blended families discriminated against. Lots of kids have two sets of parents with step-parents, and step-parents can cover their step-children under their insurance, even if one of the other main parents has custody.
