What's Up with Cousin Stacy?

by Denise Shick

Kevin loves to spend time with his older cousin Stacy. But when he overhears a phone conversation between his mom and Stacy’s mom, he wonders what Stacy has done to upset them. Worse still, will Stacy’s choices mean that his parents won’t allow him to play video games or attend baseball games with her anymore? What’s Up with Cousin Stacy? explores one family’s response to the news of a loved one identifying as LGBT. With his parents’ help, Kevin learns that love, honesty, and prayer are the best ways to navigate stressful situations. This book is a valuable tool for parents, pastors, and counselors who seek to demonstrate love and compassion as they help families process and respond to a loved one’s decision to identify as LGBT.
