Description

In this third of three interviews, Dr. Robert L. Barret, professor emeritus in counseling at UNC Charlotte, practicing psychotherapist, and LGBTQ activist, discusses at length the reactions and ramifications of coming out to his family as a gay man during the mid-1980s. Dr. Barret recalls his strained relationship with his wife, Diane, and their decision to separate. He also discusses his post-coming out relationships with his three daughters: Laura, Amanda, and Ashley. Dr. Barret's oldest daughter, Ashley, came out as a lesbian. Amanda and Laura entered hetero-marriages and adopted Christian lifestyles that Dr. Barret explains were often at odds with his own lifestyle.
