[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, my gosh. Don't say anything to your neighbors. Let them live their life. It sounds like they still allow their kids to play with yours when they could have stopped that a long time ago.

Think about it this way: They know who you truly are -- and they still let their kids play with yours.

That is called being tolerant.

You are being incredibly intolerant here. Let the kids continue to play together. Don't act unless is becomes a real, actionable problem impact your kids.[/quote]

It is not intolerant to ask the question. Those of us who are gay have to worry about whether or not people will say horrible things to our kids. 
That said, I would just arm my kids w/ what to say if anyone said anything shitty to them about their two moms, I wouldn't forbid them from playing. [/quote]

Except these neighbors know OP is gay and no one has said anything remotely unkind. Why would you think they’d suddenly start being shitty?[/quote]

I don't think that at all. I'm saying, in general, as a gay family, my kids know what to say to rude people. They are armed with this knowledge for ANY encounter. 
That's why I said I wouldn't forbid them from playing - because no one has been unkind.

You teach your kids what to do in the EVENT that it happens. I am [i]not [/i]saying that OP should be like "in case the Smith family says something mean." [/quote]
