I'm reading a book about different family types to the three year old. She discovers a page with a girl with two mothers and happily points at it saying she has two mothers as well.
Can we please have this kind of representation in regular books that aren't about #diversity as well?
@AzureKingfisher casual representation is *extremely* powerful, especially in media targeted at children. If kids find it normal that someone has two moms/dads/more than two parents then it's much less of a deal later on.

@AzureKingfisher What you see and hear being accepted as normal by the people around you and the media you consume when you are a child sets your metric for normality. This is *extremely* powerful and should be handled with care, which of course means it never has been.
