Why the hell would any parents try and teach a 7 year old what the word "gay" means???

I have seen situations like this, and they tell their kids they are roomates until they are old enough to understand the reality of it.

Kids say stupid things, and do not realize it. Its a shame to see such a burden placed on such a young kid having to explain his mom's sex life to his friends at school when it is totally not necessary. Especially in the south!

Love the pic, wonder which one is "dad," its hard to tell.
You've got to be kidding.

The boy was ASKED about his mother and father. If he is living with two mom's, and he didn't know what gay was, how the HELL would he be able to understand it and express it to those who ask??

If the child didn't have gay parents, then he/she might not have questions....but the fact that the child LIVES with two gay people (who he LOVES btw), it would be logical for him to understand at least the basics.

From his answer to the other child's question, it seems he was given just that. A BASIC understanding of the meaning of being 'gay' in relation to HIS experience.....two women.

And BTW, this isn't about his mother's 'SEX LIFE', it's about her sexual orientation...hahaha.
