Lillian Hamman at WORLD interviewed me about polyamorous families and their ethical implications and reported some of what I said. It is interesting that Hamman left out almost all of the positive things I said about how polyamorous families can raise happy, healthy, thriving children and only included the most negative things with an anti-CNM slant. It is true that CNM has challenges — like any relationship style — but the interviewer’s agenda of dismissing polyamory as an ethical lifestyle came through very clearly in the article, if not in the interview itself.

One of a handful of global experts on polyamory and the foremost international expert on children in polyamorous families, Dr. Elisabeth Sheff has studied gender and
families of sexual minorities for the last 25 years. Sheff’s television appearances include CNN, and the National Geographic, and she has given more than 100 radio, podcast, print, and television interviews with sources from CNN, the New York Times, and Vogue to National Public Radio, the Sunday London Times, the Boston Globe, and Newsweek. By emphasizing research methodology and findings in her discussions, Dr. Sheff presents the kind of public intellectualism that encourages audience members to think critically regarding gender, sexualities, and families.
