Episode 92: Gay, Single, and Raising A Kid - One Father's Untold Story
In this episode, host Dr. Greg sits down with guest David Bader for an honest and heartfelt discussion about the experiences of LGBTQ parents—particularly from a father’s perspective. David opens up about his personal journey of coming out and raising his son, Daniel, as a solo parent after leaving a marriage in the early 1990s. He reflects on the challenges of being one of the few openly gay fathers at that time, noting that about 35% of LGBTQ parents are men, yet few visible role models or support systems existed for them back then. Together, Dr. Greg and David explore the complexities of parenting, relationships, and how societal perceptions of LGBTQ families have evolved. David shares both the joys and struggles of his journey—from navigating dating as a single dad to raising a child with special needs—while underscoring the importance of authenticity and self-acceptance. Through his story, he highlights how fatherhood deepened his understanding of love and resilience. This conversation offers a powerful look at how family, identity, and love intersect, adding an important voice to the broader dialogue around acceptance, inclusion, and representation in modern family life.
