Scenario

When LGBTQ+ identity divides families with traditional faith

My adult daughter came out as gay and left the church we've attended together her whole life, and while I want to support her completely, my husband thinks I'm compromising my faith by affirming her relationship, and our family dinners have become these careful dances around what we can and can't talk about.

More people experience this than they realize.
