    Hello,

    So I was thinking about the future and I came up with this script. The kids are about 5 years old and I was wondering if this is a conversation they'd have, or are they still very into that ''strict normalization'' socialization of only mummy and daddy. It's set 20 years in the future. Yes, I think that '2' is being a bit unfair laughing at '1' ... but they're only 5 years old so they'll learn.

    1. In my family I have “a mummy, a sister and a brother...”
    2. “You lose”
    1. “Why so?”
    2. “I have more mummies than you”
    1. “Yeah, how much?”
    2. “Two”
    1. “What? No fair, I only have one”
    2. “Haha...”

    What do you think?

    Doesn't need to be 20 years in the future. Most kids that young are already accepting of just about everything because they haven't yet picked up judgment or disdain.

    I can see it though. :slight_smile:

    I predict that in 20 years, the vast majority of the Western world won't bat an eye at anything revolving around non-heterosexual identities and same-sex parenting.

    It will be everywhere, familiar to everyone. Only the fringe of the fringe will still cry about it.
