- Authors
Herman, Agnes G.
- Abstract
A reprint of the article "My Son and I Came Out of the Closet," by Agnes G. Herman, which appeared in the October/November 1985 issue of "Reconstructionist" is presented. It discusses how the author accepted the fact that her son, Jeff, is gay. It notes that when Jeff, admitted that he was gay, the author and her husband got disappointed and blame themselves. Jeff gradually began to share his friends with them, and learning about gays and her son's life outside the home, made the author more comfortable, and they were able to build trust with each other.
