Work and business life Get interested in your partner's work Be emotionally supportive if they’ve had a tough day Be supportive of work relationships
Lifestyle Encourage and support activities or hobbies that bring your partner joy Be supportive of outside friendships Don’t get jealous of their friends

Many adolescents struggle with their sexual identity. If they identify as bisexual, lesbian, gay, or transexual, it can be much easier for them if they come from a home that is sex positive.
Blended families can be harder for a child to reveal their sexual identity to, as there are more people involved, each whom may have a differing opinion. It’s important for the entire family to come together and support the child in the coming out process. Learn more about the It Gets Better Project click here
