| book description |

This book offers a comprehensive examination of the socioemotional well-being of LGBTQIA+ people navigating parenting within heteronormative and cisnormative societies, with a focus on the Latin American context. It explores how intersecting factors such as gender, sexuality, race, class, and religion shape the lived experiences of LGBTQIA+ families, creating complex dynamics of exclusion and affirmation. By addressing these socioemotional challenges and the adaptive strategies developed by LGBTQIA+ parents, the book underscores the importance of advancing rights and fostering inclusive environments to support their emotional and psychological health. Building on findings from previously conducted empirical studies, this book presents theoretical reflections, methodological innovations, and policy-oriented discussions to highlight how LGBTQIA+ parenting can serve as a site of resistance and transformation. While not including detailed empirical chapters, it integrates insights from research conducted in countries such as Chile, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, and Guatemala to illuminate the broader structural, cultural, and legal obstacles faced by LGBTQIA+ families. These reflections emphasize the relevance of addressing socioemotional challenges in contexts where conservative and anti-rights movements continue to threaten family diversity. Key themes include the socioemotional impact of legal inequalities, the role of systemic discrimination in shaping mental health outcomes, and the significance of chosen families and support networks in fostering emotional regulation and resilience. By introducing tools such as the Intersectional Loom, the book provides scholars and professionals with a framework for analyzing identity intersections and understanding how socioemotional well-being is shaped by multiple forms of oppression and resistance. Targeted at gender studies scholars, psychologists, social scientists, and policy-makers, this book serves as a critical resource for those committed to advancing family diversity and LGBTQIA+ rights. By reflecting on the Latin American context, it offers valuable insights for global audiences working to understand and challenge the socioemotional consequences of heteronormativity and cisnormativity in other regions where these rights remain contested.
