CHILDREN OF SAME-SEX UNIONS: Maggie Gallagher

Several people have written to ask me if I've heard from other children of same-sex unions since publishing Bronagh's story. For whatever it's worth, here's a summary of personal experiences from my readers:

Three children raised by same-sex parents wrote to me, one of whom felt the experience was negative, two of whom viewed the experience favorably. (We published one of the "positives" here.)

Four people wrote to me about children they know (family members mostly) raised by same-sex parents: 3 said the children had negative experiences and one said the children had positive expeirences.

Seven adult children with a gay parent wrote to me; most of these were children of divorce whose mother or father left the marriage as part of the coming out process. None of these had favorable experiences.
