Introduction to Topic
Twenty or thirty years ago, you may have never heard of such a family, and if you did, it would seem very strange and shameful. Now, issues surrounding LGBT families have finally come into the spotlight, making it necessary to understand these different family dynamics. Many of our children in the education system have parents that belong to the LGBT community or themselves are figuring out their own individual path. Whether you are a member of an LGBT family, a friend and advocate, or in opposition to LGBT families, we hope to provide some information and insight on the struggles that this community and our students face on a daily basis.
At the end of the presentation we want you to ask yourself: Should GAY, LESBIAN, TRANSGENDERED and BISEXUAL studies be incorporated into the curriculum?
