The transition to parenthood and early child development in families with same-sex parents

As LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) adults are increasingly becoming parents through a diversity of pathways in many places around the world, greater attention is needed to support the transition to parenthood and early child development. Two key questions relevant to prospective parents in same-sex couples and to the professionals who work with them are: ‘What is the impact of having a baby on same-sex couple relationships?’ and ‘What is the impact of having same-sex parents on infants’ early development?’
