School responsiveness to adoption among lesbian mothers. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • A study surveyed adoptive parents, focusing on 125 lesbian mothers, about their children's school experiences related to adoption and incidents of teasing.
  • Results indicated that lesbian mothers were more proactive in disclosing their child's adoption status to schools and engaging with teachers on adoption-related topics compared to heterosexual parents and gay fathers.
  • While adoption status teasing rates were similar across parent groups, children of lesbian mothers and gay fathers experienced more teasing related to race/ethnicity than those of heterosexual parents.

Article Abstract

A sample of adoptive parents, including an oversampling of lesbian mothers ( = 125), was surveyed regarding their family's school experiences related to adoption, satisfaction with how the school handled adoption-related issues, and their child's experiences with teasing at school. Linear and logistic regression analyses showed that lesbian mothers were more likely than heterosexual parents and gay fathers to disclose their child's adoption status in the school record and to ensure that the school was aware of the child's adoption. Lesbian mothers were also more likely than heterosexual parents and gay fathers to report talking to teachers about adoption issues. There were no differences as a function of parent sexual orientation regarding rates of children being teased about adoption status. However, rates of teasing regarding child race/ethnicity were higher for children of lesbian mothers and gay fathers than for children of heterosexual parents. The implications of the findings for future research and the provision of services for lesbian mothers are considered.
