Love, Ellen / Betty DeGeneres

At its heart this book is all about love--specifically, about loving our children, all of our children. You might think that such a book should not be needed. What could be more natural, more innate, than loving your children? You take care of them from the time they are born, or, if adopted, from the time they are yours; you help them to grow into the very best persons they can be. And then, one day, one or more of your children may come to you, as a loving parent, with their own self-discovery--the news that they are gay or lesbian. You can rest assured that they haven't come to this decision lightly. When they finally work up the courage to be honest with you about who they are, it's because they need your love and support more than ever. They need to know that your love is pure and unconditional. Such love is something they are not likely to get from anyone else in the world--only from a mother or father.
