. As the title suggests, Russo-Young comes from a generally conventional family, the only real “difference” being that she grew up with two lesbian moms. Featured prominently in the documentary are interviews with her mothers, Robin and Russo, who were a couple of the pioneering LGBTQ+ women in the late ’70s and early ’80s that paved the way for queer couples to have children.
The story of the birth of the filmmaker and her sister, Cade, is also told in the three-part docuseries—each child came from two separate donors. At first, both donors would visit the young girls and their family on vacation.
In an old clip from a PBS special that was filmed about the family, Russo-Young’s sister Cade can be seen describing the trial as “horrendous” and “like a big nightmare,” while talking about living in fear. They both describe in detail the meetings they were ordered to take with the court-appointed psychiatrist.
Russo-Young’s mothers also challenge the idea that because a family is queer, then it must have no boundaries. They are, as the title says, a nuclear family, and that’s what they wanted—a family consisting of the two parents and their kids.
