A Family is a Family is a Family


This is a trailer for the HBO documentary by Rosie O'Donnell titled "A Family is a Family is a Family."  This is a clip essentially sums up the purpose of our project.  Families can be diverse and still be normal, and when this is expressed in the media, evolution and progression can occur. 

Reactions to this clip on youtube.com show the varied and strong opinions on this topic.



"doesn't matter if you have 2 dads or 2 moms or one dad and one mom, a family is a family."
those children are so much smarter than most adults! the world would be a much better place if everyone thought like them.

Interesting that you should speak of oppression. The straight families feel oppressed by YOUR gay activism. What do you expect from straight people? If they feel uncomfortable with it, then who the hell are YOU to say that they must accept it? When you activists go out there and SCREAM that the straight population MUST accept YOUR views and ideas of a "family", are you not also oppressing the straight couples too?



Here is a reaction from someone in Spain, which shows the cultural variances on the subject.  According to this comment, something that is such a hot topic here in the US is seen as perfectly normal in other parts of the world.



Dear. I live in spain. I red a lot of history books. In fact that is very related to my profession. I live in a country where same sex adoption are considered normal and accepted. In fact I have firiends they have adopt. I see them every week. I see their children grow up beautiful and healthy. I see hoe lucky and happy these kids are, having parents, grand parents, aunts and uncles, and people all around them loving them. Do what you think is right. But you will be responsible for denying happy
