“”Eventually, I learned to just not tell anyone unless we were close and I knew they were cool. I only ever had one person I trusted enough to actually come to a family picnic where my mom’s partners would all be there. My mom’s partners aren’t my parents but they are part of my life and my family. They’re wonderful and supportive and have helped me through some horrible dark times in my life. I’m grateful to have such a wonderful, loving family.” https://www.buzzfeed.com/ajanibazile/children-of-poly-parents
