Why my family attracts looks from strangers
While many families may look like the archetype of mom and dad and kids, every family has something that makes them different, says author Rumaan Alam. The makeup of his family -- a brown man and a white man with two black boys -- requires he and his husband practice what he calls "radical honesty" with his kids. Alam gives his Brief but Spectacular take on family.
