Candid, compassionate, authoritative--a rich source of insights, information, and practical guidance. ""The first major work on the topic."" --Gay Community News ""A much needed comprehensive study of what happens to husbands, wives, and children during the coming-out crisis. --The Reverend Jane E. Vennard, founder Task Force for Spouses of Gays and Lesbians ""The new enlarged edition adds important factors, especially children's reactions to a parent's coming out. Well-researched and insightful."" --Fritz Klein, M.D., author of The Bisexual Option ""Anybody practicing in this area would be well advised to read this book."" --Professor Arthur S. Leonard, New York Law School In two million marriages, one spouse is gay, lesbian, or bisexual. Having a spouse or parent disclose his or her same-sex attraction is a shattering experience fraught with pain, confusion, anger, and a profound loss of self-esteem. Amity Pierce Buxton spotlights this exploding phenomenon and reports constructive coping strategies that spouses and children have used to resolve problems of sexual damage, family breakdown, deception, and homophobia. Illustrated throughout by riveting personal narratives, this expanded edition of The Other Side of the Closet traces the family's journey from initial trauma to eventual transformation. This invaluable source of information for spouses, families, and professionals is based on Dr. Buxton's eight years of research, including interviews with 1,000 straight spouses and children, her own personal experience, and her counseling work with spouses of gay, lesbian, and bisexual partners.Binding Type: Paperback

Fine but not great
It fit well and looked ok. However the material was thinner and flimsier than I expected. It was quite wrinkled and I couldn’t iron it well without risking melting it due to the polyester content. After ironing for about an hour on low heat it was passable but it was a lot of work to only get a passable result.

El traje me gusto lo pedí en size 8 y le quedó grande a mi hijo, lo volví a pedir en un size 7 y lo q me entregaron fue una mercansia usada llena de brillo y mal olor, desde q abrí el paquete se veía q esta usada, me parece de muy mal profesionalismo ya q deberían revisar las cosas de devuelven para q después clientes como yo no tengamos q pasar por esto

Definitely Worth It!

Love this set for my little Easter-man (Khaki - Size 6)! I have a husky 5 year old son. ( I was able to hem the pants myself although his pants slipped down a bit before I tightened his belt) Loved the overall quality for the price!
Kids play - it was the perfect material to give a good look but not break the bank. I purposely bought a bit large to ensure he’ll be able to wear it longer. I’ll be back for the navy suit.

Exceptional boys suit!

Seriously Great Little Suit! True to Size and Looked So Sharp.
I bought this blue suit in a size 12 for my son, and honestly, I was really impressed. You know how sometimes kids' clothes sizing is all over the place? Well, this suit was actually a true size 12, which was a huge relief. It fit him perfectly right out of the box.
And the best part? It looked fantastic on him! The blue is a really nice color, and the suit just looked really well-made. He wore it to a 6th Grade graduation and he looked so grown-up and handsome. We got a ton of compliments.
If you need a good-looking suit for your son that actually fits, you should definitely check this one out. We were really happy with it!
