<p>The Right to be<br>Parents is the first book to provide a detailed history of how LGBT parents<br>have turned to the courts to protect and defend their relationships with their<br>children. Carlos A. Ball chronicles the stories of LGBT parents who, in seeking<br>to gain legal recognition of and protection for their relationships with their<br>children, have fundamentally changed how American law defines and regulates<br>parenthood. To this day, some courts are still not able to look beyond sexual<br>orientation and gender identity in cases involving LGBT parents and their<br>children. Yet on the whole, Ball’s stories are of progress and transformation:<br>as a result of these pioneering LGBT parent litigants, the law is increasingly<br>recognizing the wide diversity in American familial structures.</p>
