Children in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender families are often victims of discrimination because many European countries do not legally recognise these families. Children in LGBT families often do not have the means of establishing a legally-recognised relationship between them. This leaves such relationships with a key adult in their life extremely vulnerable, which is certainly against the child's best interest, and may lead to a violation of a child's right to be raised by his or her parents'.
