I worry about this too, because my husband does not want our kids to view homosexuality in a positive light at all, due to our denomination. I know that it will be an issue between us, but he has to learn that he cannot control what I say/do in front of the kids anymore than I can control what he says and does. I do not think that a mother should have to hide the fact that she is a lesbian, or hide who she is with.
