In today’s episode, we’re joined by award-winning LGBTQ+ author and advocate Eric Rosswood, whose books have become lifelines for queer families navigating parenting, identity, and representation. We dive into the importance of LGBTQ+ stories in children's literature — and why they’re not just for queer kids.
Eric shares deeply personal insights on parenting as a gay dad, the emotional toll of constantly “coming out” in public spaces, and how to prepare for the unexpected shifts in relationship and identity that come with fatherhood.
We also reflect on our recent family whirlwind (including dance intensives, sick days, and solo parenting), and explore what allies can actually do to support queer families in everyday spaces — from schools to playgrounds.
