“…And when same‐sex couples receive more emotional support from family and friends, the association between discrimination and psychological distress is weakened (Simons & Johnson, ). Moreover, social support may serve as more than a buffer: Some research has found that provision of advice and modeling of effective rearing practices has a direct impact on parental behavior (Grimes, Klein, & Putallaz, ). Thus, social support serves as a protective factor in its presence and as a vulnerability factor in its absence.…”

Despite policy advancements ensuring equality for lesbians and gay men, families headed by LG individuals still experience stigmatization and discrimination, both of which are chronic forms of adversity that can compromise healthy family functioning. Yet research demonstrates that many families headed by same‐sex parents are functioning well. Research using deficit‐comparison approaches has not contributed to a deeper understanding of variations in child rearing and child outcomes that may contribute to, or impede, healthy family functioning among the population of LG families. We describe a model of family resilience, grounded in minority stress theory, that may help inform the research agenda on families headed by same‐sex parents. Our conceptual framework of family resilience can guide the next wave of research with LG families and may help programs to promote key family strengths.

“…Parents often fi nd that talking to their children about alcohol use and monitoring their child's drinking are diffi cult tasks, and they often turn to others for support and guidance (King et al, 2002). Further, studies demonstrate that parenting approaches and attitudes are affected by parents' social networks (Homel et al, 1987) and other external social factors (e.g., their parents, community norms, and social experiences; Grimes et al, 2004;King et al, 2002). As the authors of one study note, "Parents judge the adequacy of their own parenting by looking at what other parents say and do" (Linkenbach et al, 2003, p. 248).…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: Parents often look to other parents for guidance, but how accurate are their perceptions? Expanding on existing normative literature to include parents of college students, this study fi rst sought to determine whether parents accurately estimated the attitudes of other parents concerning their college student's alcohol-related behaviors. The effect of these (mis)perceived injunctive norms on the alcohol-related attitudes and behaviors of the parents' own children was then examined. Method: Participants were 270 college student-parent dyadic pairs who completed independent online surveys. The student sample was 59% female; the parent sample was 78% female. Results: A structural equation model demonstrated that parents signifi cantly overestimated other parents' approval of alcohol use by their respective child and, further, that these misperceptions strongly infl uenced parental attitudes toward their own child's drinking. Parental attitudes were subsequently found to be signifi cantly associated with their child's attitudes toward drinking but were only marginally associated with the child's actual drinking, thereby underscoring the mediational effect of the child's attitudes. Conclusions: This is the fi rst study to document the infl uence of parental normative misperceptions regarding alcohol use by their college-age children, reinforcing the importance of parental attitudes on children's alcohol-related attitudes and behaviors in college. These fi ndings support the need to complement student-based interventions with parent-based interventions aimed at increasing parental awareness and involvement. Further, the current fi ndings indicate that normative interventions targeting parents offer a promising avenue by which to indirectly and positively infl uence college students' alcohol use. (J.

“…The style of the interaction between parent and child is linked to a variety of social outcomes including aggression, achievement, and moral development. Parents who are responsive, warm, and engaging are more likely to have children who are more socially competent (Grimes et al, 2004). In contrast, parents who are hostile and controlling have children who experience more difficulty with age-mates.…”
