Famous People Who Were Raised By LGBTI Parents

LGBTI parenting refers to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) people raising one or more children as parents or foster care parents. This includes: children raised by same-sex couples (same-sex parenting), children raised by single LGBTI parents, and children raised by an opposite-sex couple where at least one partner is LGBTI.

Opponents of LGBTI rights have argued that LGBTI parenting adversely affects children. However, scientific research consistently shows that LGBTI parents are as fit and capable as heterosexual parents, and their children are as psychologically healthy and well-adjusted as those reared by heterosexual parents. Major associations of mental health professionals in the U.S., Canada, and Australia have not identified credible empirical research that suggests otherwise.
