joy eats

haven't blog for awhile because i've been busy with school work since the semester is winding down. i don't know if it's the busyness or something else but in these last few months i've been struggling with what i am learning at school and what i know is true from the bible. is child develop suppose to help me to become a better teacher? or are they just an excuse for human sinful nature? I remembered last year for one of my family/community class we had to read a book call The Queer Parent's Primer and the professor also invited a guest speakers from the LGBT organization. During that workshop, i really tried to listen and understand where these people are coming from, but i just couldn't help to disagree with everything they were saying. They introduced books to explain homosexuality to children as another kind of love. At the end of the class they passed out these posters for all the teacher to take home to put in their classroom to show awareness and acceptance. As one of the guy passed the poster to me, i politely said " no thanks" as i turned and walked out of the classroom. then in the corner of my eyes, i saw him staring back, gave a smirk and nodded. i know what he's probably thinking but his look didn't bother me. it got me thinking what is the correct response to a family of LGBT when they come into my classroom. What am i going to say to the child of a LGBT family? i can't tell a two year old that the decision his mom and mom made is wrong. and how do i comfort them when they ask me why thier family unit looks different than other families compare to their classmates. I know i can't expect everyone to have the same conviction as me because they don't know God, but how do i as a teacher be able to love that family and the child but still saying and modeling the truth?
