My conversation with writer, activist, and overall powerhouse Katy Faust on what we owe our children and the future.

I speak with Katy about her upbringing in a lesbian household, the problems with same-sex marriage and how redefining marriage has redefined parenthood, the implications of surrogacy on the child, IVF, divorce and step-parents, the issues with adoption and what the rights of the child should be.

Katy Faust is the founder and director of the children's rights organization, Them Before Us, and the author of “Them Before Us: Why We Need a Global Children's Rights Movement.” You can also find her work on Twitter @Advo_Katy.
