DESCRIPTION
Not All Parents Are Straight is a feature-length documentary that chronicles the experiences of six families in which children are being raised by gay and lesbian parents.The program examines the dynamics of the parent-child relationship, the emotional conflicts for the children, legal custody problems, and the social discrimination that these families face.

REVIEWS 
“…should provide hope and encouragement for families in similar situations…[and] gives heterosexual audiences an insight into the life of a gay couple as parents and dispels the myth that gay couples raise gay children.”
Library Journal

“…provocative (in the best sense)…Viewing this should be reassuring to other children of gay parents, and may enlighten some of their friends.”
-School Library Journal

“An exceptionally compelling documentary. In its embrace of humanity the film becomes an inspiration.”
-San Francisco Chronicle

Broadcast nationally on PBS via common carriage
