Unknown-11Unknown-10Jeff Bennett of Proud Parenting said to www.gaystarnews.com that the organization hoped to facilitate communication between parents as part of the campaign. HILTON2X633Parenting is hard work, and seeing your family honored online is a reward for everyone. Even shy people feel a sense of justification by seeing their families highlighted on Proud Parenting. runwayx633Creating a family can be very difficult for us, so LGBT parents deserve to have a spotlight on their achievement. I DANIELSX633think it’s particularly important for children to see themselves in the Proud Parenting Family Gallery because they are surrounded by over 500 families just like theirs. They may not know any other families with LGBT parents, but the Galleries allow the otherwise disconnected to feel a sense of unity with families like theirs.’
