Ooh yay! A post that I actually might have something important to say lol! Ok so we have a 10 year old boy. I remember when he was in kindergarten and he brought his first friend over to our house after school. We pulled into the driveway, and my wife was on the porch. His friend asked, "where is your dad?" instant panic! I thought omg here we go! My son piped right up and said " I don't have a dad, I have two moms!" well now I'm really panicking, terrified of what his little friend might respond with. His friend thought for a second and said " that's cool!!" after that we had to have a talk that not all families are just a mom and dad, but that it could be two girls or two boys, it didn't matter as long as everyone had love for each other and took care of each other. He was satisfied with that. After that, it has never come up, I guess because he is used to it and he understands that there are different lifestyles.
I've only had to reinforce that once to my son, after my own sister told him behind my back that my way of living was wrong and I was going to hell, and this wasn't the right way to have a family. Needless to say it was WW3 with my sister! I just reinforced what I already told him and told him that his Aunt was very wrong to say that and it wasn't true. He is a really happy kid, so he said " ya I was thinking she was wrong". lol! Now we just recently had to explain that he might have a new little brother or sister soon, again I was terrified! He was sooo happy and is so excited! He understands that two girls can't have a baby together, that it has to be a boy and girl. Well at this point my son cut me off and said " oh my gosh mom, don't tell me your going to get a fake boyfriend!" lol, my wife and I couldn't stop laughing! I said no, that some guys will donate their sperm so people who can't have babies will be able to. He was like "ok good"!! Lol. It's never been an issue to him.
