I might be off base here, but...

Best way to do justice to your children is to.... explain why other people think differently.

Besides, maybe teaching them that there are a lot of different ways to order a family unit, that there is nothing wrong with being different, and that no matter what, you'll accept them would save them later on down the line. Because there are more ways to be different than just being LGBTQIA.

And just paying lip service to it isn't going to cut it. You have to mean it and stick to it.

I've been using Amazon for a long time, and I often order home goods there. I haven't bought books, but now I will look for the same book that discusses LGBT as a disease. I don't mind different minorities, but I do have kids. And I'm not used to explaining to my kids why other people think differently.
Hi Dana. If you plan to stick around here for very long, you may want to sit and read the room for a while before posting again.

The cans of spam scattered about that room might get in the way...
