Everyone knows there is no secret to parenting. Every child that is trying to discover who they are as a person is going to go through several trials and tribulations growing up.
All of this is heightened when raising your child who is apart of the LGBTQ+ community. Belonging to this community can be an avenue of strength, but it brings forth a unique set of challenges.
As a parent it can be hard not knowing if you are giving your child the correct support so they are able to navigate through life. Especially since recent studies show that members of the LGBTQ+ community are at a higher risk for experiencing mental health conditions, most commonly anxiety and depression.
So join us on the Mental Health Happy Hour to listen to our guest, Lisa talk about how her and her daughter navigated through these times. The highs, the lows, and the benefits of just letting your child be themself. There is no protocol on how to raise your children, but there is a way to do so that will allow them to be understanding and accepting of who they are as a person.
