[quote=Anonymous]Op I am sorry you feel this way. If you are married, I think is is more than ok to reference your husband. I think all teachers say things in passing about spouses or partners. A few years back, I had and aid who was open. During morning meetings, I would ask him benign questions about what he and his husband did over the weekends. He was open about being gay. Kids then felt comfortable approaching and talking to him. It was beneficial for ALL students to see that an individual who helps them is different from some of them. That year, I did not have and bullying issues with LGBTQ+ students in my class. His presence really made a difference. Stay strong and know your presence is appreciated.[/quote]
