Queer Parenthood: No Birds. No Bees.

Listen, we need to talk. You may remember the birds and the bees, but just because a person loves a person very much doesn't mean one of those people is able or willing to carry a child. This week on The Daddy Issue we're talking to Sara Coster from More Than Wished For (Meer Dan Gewenst) about LGBT parenting, and what options are out there - and how they work. ⁠So, get ready for the talk every queer person deserved to have, but didn't get at school.⁠⁠
