Well,hello everyone.
It's me again.
For the past year there has been a huge debate about letting kids watch movies or TV shows with LGBT+ characters, or in general exposing young kids to LGBT+.
So I decided to give my opinion on the topic with this take.
Back in October we actually did an expirement in School about this topic,if you want to know the results,feel free to ask me.
Before you continue,I want to make something clear, there is nothing wrong with being homosexual,asexual,bi-sexual or transsexual or anything else.
I have friends that belong in the community and I don't love them less because of their sexuality.
It's your choice,your right to be whoever you want to be and NONE can tell you to change yourself.I'm not here to shame anyone.
This MyTake is my personal point of view, I don't try to offend anyone neither to hurt or anger members of the LGBT+.
Why I Disagree With Having LGBT+ Characters In Kids Shows
1.It Will Confuse Them, Not Only Because It's Different But Also Because It's Controversial.
Just like how we shouldn't brainwash or force children into religion, or anything else, we shouldn't either fill them with questions regarding their sexuality.
If you expose children in homosexuality or transexuality the results aren't guratanteed to be positive. The whole topic may be extremely positive for their development as people but it can also be too damaging for their young brain, some will accept it while others won't.
Plus LGBT+ it's too controversial to appear on a child's show. Kids are too inoccent, they won't understand why there are so mixed reactions of their parents,their friend's parents and in general everyone's about something like this.
2.They Are Too Young To Have in General Information About Sexual Orienation.
Sex is completely natural.
There is nothing wrong with it of course, but it should not be in children's shows because inorfming children about sex it's a parent's job.
None else's.
Every parent believe that the time to talk about sex is ideal at different ages, same goes with th talking about different sexualities.
3.They Won't Really Understand.
Kids are extremely smart but they tend to believe that what they see on TV is the right thing, and growing up thinking that this is the way things are suppose to be...it's mistaken.
Some people that belong to LGBT+ in the past have explained that they had a problem seeing only straight couples on the TV shows because it made them feel unnatural.
Same will happen this time, but with opposites roles.
And that will bring no result.
However to end this,I do of course think that the kids as they get older should start being informed about different sexualities so they can start accepting that people might be different than the,, but only when they are ready to understand and realize that they don't HAVE to be something that they don't feel like it just because it exists.
-END.
