Learning more about families, and the differences between boys and girls.

        Gospel culture has a great impact! This last week we have learned about cultures and how we would build upon them in our own culture. In my own family we are a pretty close family and it is interesting to look around and see how different families act and how close they are some are maybe more of the “huggy” type while others it is just being with each other.         Everything that we have been learning about has to do with the family structure and how we will act outside of our family structure if we will stay strong in what are parents have taught us. Everyone in the family has an important role that ties us in to the family and the strengths that we have they may all be different but if we all work together they tie in very well.

        I also thought it was very interesting watching that video about how we should raise our boys more like girls and the studies that they did and what parents have done. In a story one of the parents gave her boys Barbie’s and they used them to sword fight. And the difference that are between other boys who like to play with the girls and kitchens it does not make them different and it is not a bad thing if they want to be like their moms it is just what they may see at home.

        We have also learned about same sex attraction and how it starts and some of the studies as well that have been conducted. We learn in the family proclamation that it states gender is an essential part of the eternal identity. We were born the gender that we are supposed to be there was no mistake. In the world today people think that they have been born that way but we learn that we were not born that way that it comes through what people think or what people say. I think that it has been very interesting learning about all the differences and how people think that they may be gay or a lesbian and all the studies that have been conducted.
