  • When to involve the police or school administration when it comes to bullying
  • How to advocate for local, state, and national policies that protect your child
  • Ways to educate well-meaning but misguided extended family members
  • How to help start a GSA at your child’s school
  • Signs of unhealthy relationships
  • When to consider therapy for your child, yourself, and/or your family
  • How to find an LGBTQ-friendly community (including inclusive churches)
  • “In Their Own Words” sections where LGBTQIA folks and their relatives talk about their experiences
