Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Todavía ahora, a principios del siglo XXI, muchos padres tienen dificultades para decir abiertamente: ĞMi hijo es homosexualğ. Este libro recoge las experiencias de unas familias cuyas vidas se han visto afectadas por el descubrimiento de que uno de sus descendientes es lesbiana o gay, describe cómo la percepción de los demás influye en ellas y en qué medida se ve modificada la imagen que los propios padres tienen de su hijos. A lo largo de sus entrevistas a unas cincuenta familias, los autores detectan un mismo patrón en el camino que conduce de la declaración de la homosexualidad del hijo o de la hija a la plena integración de la nueva realidad. Camino jalonado por unas fases que son descritas con detalle a partir de los relatos de los padres: pérdida, acusación, culpabilidad, aceptación e integración. Un patrón común, pero compartamientos diversos. Algunas veces la noticia lleva a los padres y a los hermanos a reforzar sus lazos con el hijo gay o la hija lesbiana. Otras, los compañeros de los hijos y las familias de aquéllos llegan a asumir plenamente el papel que les corresponde, en concordancia con los vínculos que les unen. En otras ocasiones los padres y los hermanos descubren un nuevo significado en sus vidas a través de la colaboración con los colectivos o asociaciones de padres, familias y amigos de lesbianas y gays, y por medio de la participación en la lucha por los derechos de los homosexuales. Muchas familias declararon al ser entrevistadas que el permanecer unidas les ha ayudado a superar los poderosos obstáculos impuestos por la sociedad. Los autores muestran también los efectos duraderos y a veces trágicos de los temores que surgen en las familias cuando un hijo o una hija les revela su homosexualidad. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Paperback. Condition: New. Even now, at the end of the twentieth century, many still have difficulty standing up and saying, "I am the parent of a gay child." Something to Tell You recounts the stories of families whose lives have been touched by the discovery that a child is lesbian or gay-how it affects and influences people's perceptions of their children and even changes the self-image of parents themselves. Focusing on fifty average families-not people seen in clinics or therapy-the authors found a consistent pattern of change: first negative, then positive. Sometimes the news led parents and siblings to form stronger bonds with the child, with each other, and with other relatives and friends. In many cases, their child's partner and partner's family grew to assume an important role in their own lives. In some cases, parents and siblings discovered new meaning in their lives through speaking out or joining PFLAG (Parents, Families, and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) and becoming part of the struggle for lesbian and gay rights. The authors found that families committed to staying together are typically able to overcome the powerful obstacles imposed by society.Something to Tell You also shows the lasting and sometimes tragic consequences for families who falter in the process of integration. Unwilling to accept their child's sexuality, some parents sought to blame each other, and all too often their own relationships unraveled as a result. Others who failed to tell close friends sometimes lost those friends through keeping secrets. Parents who neglected to form bonds with their child's partner fostered climates of alienation that persisted for years. A richly diverse collection of family stories, Something to Tell You is a book that will help break down widespread prejudice and put an end to destructive cultural myths. It affirms families' highest aspirations toward active love for their gay children, showing the steps to take toward new levels of support, solidarity, and love.
