We all want so much for our kids; today, Erin Hug writes about how she wants to create a wholly different, much more accepting world for her daughter than the one in which she grew up. As a child in the 1990s, “I got the message from society loud and clear: queer was different, and different was scary,” she writes. “I learned to hide who I was, and let years of anxiety fill the place inside that should have been reserved for love.”
She wants something different – something better – for her own daughter, and she’s determined to make it happen.
