Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index.
Summary When one third of Australian families are a variation on the nuclear model, no family should ever feel less an authentic unit than any other. Yet stigma remains. Chloe Shorten rejects labels as she tells of her own courageous quest to create a new normal. Honest, sincere and warm hearted this book tells the story of the modern household and the idea of who qualifies as 'a family' in the 21st century.
