When Carter was in high school, Laura got pregnant through artificial insemination and gave birth to twins Hannah and Benjamin. Living in my situation was a unique experience. Carter's experience outside of his home wasn't always as pleasant. In school I was often called 'Fag' or 'Homo'. I was even beat up.
Education is the key to ending ignorance.
Ignorance is what forms hatred, because people cannot identify with it. People feel threatened by what they don't understand. Anything people can do to create awareness and a 'Safer' environment is wonderful, and a group here on campus is a prime opportunity. The local Santa Cruz chapter meets the first Tuesday of every month at St. John's Episcopal Church in Capitola from 7-9 pm. Another group dealing with Queer family issues is the Family Pride Coalition.
