Facilitate that discussion by telling them that every family is different. Follow up by reading a book that shows that.

I would ask the student who laughed, why they think that having two moms is funny. And I would emphasize to them that having two parents or guardians who love you is a very special thing that not all children have. And I would probably read some stories about children who don’t have a typical family demographic.

First ask the student if they want to talk about their experiences with their classmates, then tell the other students that laughing is an unkind way to respond to someone’s lived experience. Show empathy and offer examples about how all families are valid, and say that all families look different. Include a lesson later in the year about how we can see other types of families from a welcoming and curious perspective

I would let the student know that it is inappropriate to laugh. I would use the other students question to open a conversation as a class. It is important to take the attention off of that specific student and instead facilitate a conversation about respect and divers families.
