announcement yesterday that U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his husband Chasten are becoming parents. On Twitter, Secretary Buttigieg made the announcement, saying, "For some time, Chasten and I have wanted to grow our family," he wrote to Twitter. "We're overjoyed to share that we've become parents!
The process isn't done yet and we're thankful for the love, support, and respect for our privacy that has been offered to us.
We can't wait to share more soon."How could you not be happy for them? Yet, in this day of social media runaway ruminations, some people took the announcement as an opportunity to hone in on the joys, and not so joyous, experience of being gay parents.
