When her 25-year-old daughter, Jenny, announces that she is a lesbian and has met a woman she loves, Sheila Katz tries to take pleasure in her daughter's happiness but finds that her husband is unwilling to do the same. Dan is convinced that Jenny is only going through a phase and that once she meets the right man, she'll realize her mistake. Sheila finds the monthly PFLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) meetings extremely helpful, but after he attends one, Dan refuses to go back. When Jenny and Tamara ask for Sheila's support in planning (and helping to pay for) their traditional Jewish wedding, she further incurs Dan's anger by agreeing. At the same time, Sheila finds her own heretofore-unquestioned heterosexuality challenged when she realizes that she is strongly attracted to a lesbian artist. Schwab's touch is light, but her message is earnest (and only occasionally didactic). She raises difficult issues as she shows how families can support and accept their children who come out to them as a gay, lesbian, or bisexual.
