Hypothetically:
If you were gay and you and your partner just got a child would you be open about being gay and about the child having two mothers/fathers or would you hide it from them until they were older.
At their age (I'm talking 4-11) they would most likely be open about having gay parents. This could possibly cause bullying. Well not possibly, it would. Your child would be harassed and teased about it. Would you put them through that or would you come up with some story about one of you. Then tell them when they were older and more fully understood?
However, if you told them when they were older they may get angry that you had lied to them your whole lives but there might be a chance that they would understood. Unknowingly they could grow up to be a homophobe and when they found out... it could be bad. Then again you are their parents and they would be close to you so they might not even care. They may think it's super cool.
I can't decide what I would do... what would you do?
