Absolutely the fuck not. Not today, satan. Get thee behind.
Came across this book at the library where I work. "Relationships" is very large on the cover and I didn't read the subtitle before I checked all of the little bathroom stall people to see if any of the relationships (or people) depicted are queer. The answer was no and then I read the subtitle and discovered why. It didn't take much flipping to find the portion of the book that talks about queer folks. Same old same old "hate the sin love the sinner" bullshit. Mercifully I did not find a discussion of trans folks. I imagine we are not covered in this text.
Not all Christians are homophobic. The people who supported me and affirmed me in my identity in college were Christians. I would even guess that most Christians are not homophobic. But it is books like this that give Christianity and religion and religious people a bad reputation for bigotry.
Do not buy this book. Do not use it to teach your children. If you are a person who prays, do me a solid and pray for any child is harmed by this book.
All my love,
Nat

This is another preread I did, as I will be doing this as a study with my children. I will be waiting probably another year before I do this with my oldest. It is recommended for ages 11-14. We homeschool, so my children are not in this big circle of influence that they are dealing with all this yet and probably wont be for a few more years yet. However, they do know how it all works and are aware of what it is, and what God has commanded and I do agree we as parents need to be the ones having these discussions with them before they seek elsewhere or learn it from someone else. This will be a great discussion study with bringing an even great awareness and understanding. There are great discussion questions, which is why once I saw what those where I see that mine are not quite ready for this study, but will be soon. Definitely something to do if your children are already or soon to interested in a relationship with the opposite age. Though at that age, I am not sure why they would be, but I know it happens and is.
