Did anyone catch this? It was the Barbra Walters 10 most fascinating people special. I don't usually watch this stuff, or buy People's top what ever issues, but there was nothing else on.
The part that bothered me the most, was her interview with the man that had a baby, and was pregnant again. He made this comment "gender is a social label" and it just made my stomach turn. Now instead of going into why this is so wrong, I will just share the conclusion I came up with. It is now more important than ever, that we give our children the truth and knowledge in our homes. They Will Not be getting these things from school, TV, or peers. We as parents have a very important job, that we cannot hope or even want our children to get somewhere else. We should not leave it to out side influences to teach our kids Morality, civility, or ethics. It is our job, and we cannot fail.

Chad and I were talking about this the other day. "He" will always be a girl. Nothing she can do will ever give her XY chormosomes! Chad also made the comment that if you decide to start calling some guy a girl does that make him a girl? No! It's insane!

I'm also reminded of the Proc. to the family... "Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortan, and eternal identity and purpose." We have always existed as who we are, male or female, and always will. It makes me sad that there are so many who don't know they are divine.
