Promoting the family

1. What are some practical ways that you can "promote" measures that will maintain and strengthen the family? 
1.  We can promote measures by being an example, I think that is the best way but also encouraging others. We can adopt if possible but also we can show others how to create strong family bonds and not be preduce. I think that if someone has already made the choice, for example a gay couple having a child, then we should help them learn to be good parents and what they can do. 
2. Please submit at least three insights you received from watching the video. Come to class prepared to share.
1. When I watched the video I was reminded of the time that my family was asked to take turns holding signs that said no to prop 8 in california. Hoping that the state would vote against gay marriage to be legal. Standing up for that and having people swear at you, even though you were possibly as young as 9 was hard, my sister got flipped off and it was a hard moment but she was standing for something she believed in. 
2. I also found it interesting that the example she used was that a doctor didn't have to preform an abortion if he or she finds it morally wrong. I had never thought about that before. I agree in the fact that the doctor shouldn't have to preform that if they do not want to. 
3.  Lastly the insight I also have is when it comes to sharing how it is unique to every person and situation, sometimes you need to be blunt but other times you need to be timid otherwise people will shut down and not speak to you anymore then they have to and they will not truly listen to what you have to say.
