Hey, friends! I miss these forums, I really should come back more often.
This particular visit was inspired by the fact that I recently started teaching at a preschool that is based in the basement of a church. It's a really liberal place, lots of cool people, so I was startled when I saw "Bringing Up Boys" by James Dobson on display. I flipped thru it to the section where he discusses homosexuality as something that children must be treated for if they're exhibiting signs of it... and I know the staff doesn't agree with that thought. Hell, 2 out of the 9 of us are openly queer!
I don't want to go in guns-ablazin' and start a sh*tstorm about the book... but I would like to have an alternative. Something Christian-based and gay-friendly, but not so much about gay parents as about possibly gay kids.
I've got a list of possibilities, but I'm wondering if you all had any you'd swear by?
TIA~
