Solo – The Single Person’s Guide to a Remarkable Life

Supporting Non-Nuclear Families


Listen Later

Peter McGraw speaks to Diana Adams, the founder of the Chosen Family Law Center, Inc. and boutique LGBTQ family law and mediation firm Diana Adams Law & Mediation, PLLC. Both organizations serve primarily same-sex couples and non-nuclear families. Diana’s incredible TED talk "Why US laws must expand beyond the nuclear family" serves as the basis for the conversation. They suggest that, although the nuclear family model may no longer be the norm in the US. It's still the basis for social and economic benefits like health care, tax breaks, and citizenship. Diana contends that all families, regardless of biological relationship or legal marriage, are deserving of equal legal rights and recognition. Peter and Diana have a wide-ranging conversation that includes how Solos are affected by these laws – and present a call to action for aging Solos.
