Even the entertainment industry has got into the act, what with Amanda Bearse of Married with Children coming out and having a baby, and Julie Cypher and Melissa Etheridge proudly talking about being new moms. We can't promise anything, but we'll try. Fabulous, opinionated interviews with our staff and volunteers, all of whom have gay parents. If we don't answer, leave a message with your name, your professional affiliation, and your deadline. Hints for stories on gay parents and their kids.

Don't assume that we'll want to be anonymous, you'll find tons of kids who are proudly outspoken about their families. But don't assume we won't want to be, either. If you are a parent, you know how hard being a parent can be.

The most common question reporters are chomping at the bit to know about a kid with gay parents, is their own sexual orientation.
