Talking about gay people as casually as heterosexual people are mentioned at school isn't harming anyone. Excluding it and making homosexuality taboo or something abnormal, however, is.

Kids will just think they are reading about two pals that share a house unless they mention the gay side in the book...that then separates it from all the books that just show mum and dad with no references to thier sexuality. ..therefore I don't like the idea of strangers teaching kids of such a young age anything sexual..
