I Love My Queer Kid

This workbook is for parents and other caretakers whose child, teen, or young adult has come out as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, nonbinary, asexual, or any other queer identity. Weekly exercises are designed to help you gain perspective, challenge your assumptions and fears, and better understand and connect with your kid. Drawing on his experience as a licensed mental health counselor working with queer youth and their families, Marc Campbell provides resources and real help for parents. Research shows that family acceptance of their kids'' LGBTQ identity significantly protects them from harm, even if they don''t do everything perfectly. The world may not always be kind to queer kids, but your home and family can be, and that makes all the difference in your child''s life. Whether you''re on board but confused or struggling deeply with learning about your kid''s identity, these thoughtful, accessible exercises can help you be the champion your kid needs. By embarking on this workbook, you''ll increase your understanding of sexuality and gender, feel more connected to your child, and learn to support them with love and acceptance as they navigate their unique path to adulthood. The second edition, coming in Fall 2026, includes new exercises and support with navigating influences like AI and TikTok.
