and yes I like gay people blahblah.

Sexuality is not a topic for daycare.[/quote]

Lol- they're not discussing sex positions! Most daycares in this area will have kids with gay parents. This is nice, in my opinion, that they're celebrating Pride. [/quote]

And what exactly will they tell the kids they are celebrating? So ridiculous.[/quote]

Families?

Love?

The fact that you can marry whoever you want?

Being true to yourself?

[b]Kids celebrate all sorts of things they don't understand.  It's how families and cultures transmit values.  My kid celebrated his first Christmas at 9 months old.  The only thing he understood was that the paper was pretty but mommy wouldn't let you eat it.  He sang "Happy Birthday" to his Grandpa with glee, long before he had understanding that people were born.  And he can wear a rainbow, and know that the day is important, even if he only has a vague understanding that it has to do with Uncle Billy and Uncle Jack, or marriage, or whatever.  But later, when he's 15 and trying to figure out whether his mom is someone he can talk to about his own questions about his own sexuality, he'll have the security of knowing that his parents are deeply committed to gay rights, in small part because they still have that picture of him in his rainbow Tshirt in preschool in the photo album.[/b][/quote]

this!  Thank you for expressing what I wanted to day.[/quote]
