There is a boy in my son's school with lesbian parents. He doesn't get teased. And another on another son's soccer team. The kids even care (and they are 14, so they understand.)

First of all, I'm highly skeptical that a parent really knows what their child is up to these days. Just 7 years ago when I was 14 I drank and smoked marijuana(long before becoming a Christian) and my parents never found out. This situation will result in two bad situations. She will be picked on, or the other children will accept homosexuality as being normal.

I've always thought that this idea that "kids might get teased" so one shouldn't do something is a terribly lame reason. All children get teased. Has anyone here had a childhood where there were not teased for something or other? Whether or not a kid has lesbian parents, a physical handicap, is smart, is dumb, dresses differently or whatever, at some point he will be teased. Making a decision for a child in the hopes that he will never be teased is unreasonable and ridiculous.
