We started looking at a bunch of things kids could use to bully our kids in regards to our current situation that we find ridiculous, regardless if I am open about my dressing. We don't have a new car with every option known to man, so they will be bullied because that means we must be poor. I'm going to be a stay at home dad, while the wife makes the bacon, so I'm sure that is ammunition as well. My wife and I have brown hair and eyes, so if our kids have blond hair and blue eyes, that must mean they are adopted, so the bullying can commence. We plan on not giving our kids unlimited use cell phones when they are 5 years old, so my god, now they won't be cool and the bullying again can commence. My point is, should we stay behind closed doors because we are fearful of how our actions may cause our kids to be bullied? If that's the case, then we wouldn't let are kids out in public, because we will always give ammunition whether we do it intentional or not. So really, what is 1 more thing, if everything we do or provide has the potential to be used as ammunition.
