[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone I will stop worrying about it. I wasnt so much blaming the daycare as thinking thats the only place she must be getting those ideas from.
I especially like what the immediate PP said.
We do have lots of books about different families, 2 mommies etc and keep them in our rotation.

I have adopted kids with my wife (two moms, bi-racial family).  I think you are worrying way too much about this.  I can't imagine that daycare is the only place she sees opposite sex families - doesn't she have grandparents, aunts and uncles, neighbors?  Hasn't she been out to Starbucks, the grocery store, museums and restaurants?  Families with two opposite sex parents are everywhere.

As far as books, yes it's important to realize that you need your daughter to feel good and secure about your family situation, but you seem really overly worried about it.  That being said, books are good.  Other things include giving her a diverse environment - you can choose schools that are diverse, a community that is accepting, activities that promote her heritage, etc.  I've found that getting involved in our community is important as well.  Maybe you want to hear how others handle this issue - you could start another thread on it.  [/quote]
