LGBT topics have barely ever been brought up in my household when I was growing up. A very good friend of mine turned out to be rather homophobic but by the time it came up I was 13 already, so I had time to make up my own mind about these things, without any real outside influence. The result is I think we all should live and let live.
I later learned that the above-mentionned very good friend's mom was homophobic and racist and a huge influence on him growing up.
LGBT-friendlyness will grow through generations, like everything else, I guess.
Hopefully sooner than later!
As they say, the apple rarely falls far from the tree! He might one day grow out of that mindset though, and that's the good thing. His mother may be beyond all reason, but who knows. Always a possibility.
I was never a fan of the indoctrination kids go through. Hate is learned. Why teach your child hate?
