Families with gay parents are not going away and are going to be more and more common. Reading a story in school is nothing. Once again the prop 8 campaign resorts to fear-mongering.

I venture to say that most people on this board and on CG have no gay friends or acquaintances.
Gays are still "the other."
How many here have invited an openly gay man into their home for a meal?
