SARAH S-B., 14, SAN FRANCISCO, CA

Tell us about your family:
I have 2 gay dads who adopted me when I was a baby.

What is your favorite hobby, sport or activity?
Writing, shopping, basketball, and swimming.

Do you participate in any COLAGE activities, events or programs?
I am in YLAP which is the youth leadership and action program that is part of the COLAGE Bay Area Chapter. I like it because it is a way for me to hang out with other kids who have lgbt parents, and I don't have to worry about whether or not they will still like me after finding out that I have gay dads.

What is the hardest thing about having gay, lesbian, bisexual and/or transgender parent/s?
That some people when they find out, don't want to be friends with you.

What's the best thing about having gay, lesbian, bisexual and/or transgender parent/s?
I've grown up more accepting of other people/cultures/religions/anything different from me and what I'm used to.
