arvind's first post I commented on was called "Showing all kinds of loving families". The post was about two men that have been together for almost 50 years but just recently became married in New York City. The post talks about different kinds of families and lifestyles. I think students need to know about diversity among families because so many are taught with one image in their mind. Our world is changing drastically and our children need to be aware of these changes.

arvind's second post I commented on was called "Amazing young girls getting toys they actually want". The post talks about the Goldieblox comercial showing little girls creating and engineering things throughout the entire house. I love this commercial because it is not black or white. It is in the gray area because it does not show the girls playing with barbies or dress-up yet it does not show them wrestling in the mud. It shows these young girls creating and building these amazing things with their girly toys around their home.
