She is here with her her nineteen year old daughter Jan who supports her. Third is Helen Wilson, who, due to her penitentiary record, her children were taken away from her. Last is Diane Butler, coordinator of the Lesbian Mother's Union of Orange County, who married a man even though she knew she was a lesbian. She felt it would be best for her children, but she eventually came to regret it and was divorced. Includes call-in questions. Contains sensitive language.
