CGiii Comment
TV movie about a not-so-happy lesbian family - pretty damn ground-breaking for its day.
A bit hackneyed for today's audience - but, it was groundbreaking and for that fact alone - it has to be admired.

The(ir) Blurb...
When waitress Linda Ray and her children move in with another woman and her child, everyone assumes it's just a matter of two divorced moms pooling resources to make ends meet. But when Linda Ray's adolescent son realizes that the two women are sharing a bed, he tells his father, and a battle for custody begins - a fight that a lesbian mother in the 1970s will find hard to win.
