Dr. Kyoung Mi Choi published the opinion piece "What I Learned When I Came Out to My Asian Mother" in Yes! Magazine.
"Initially, she was shocked. She expressed her excruciating pain and disappointment toward me and herself, thinking that she wasn’t a “good” Asian mother. She became silent for a while; years went by. Then she slowly opened up, started asking me questions, listening to my stories, and meeting my partner. She ultimately replaced her feelings of shame and guilt with deeper understanding and love."
