The Supreme Court ruled in favor of gay marriage nationwide in the United States a few days ago, and President Obama went on to call this ‘a victory for America.’ Click here if you missed it! But, a question that keeps popping up with several parent that are against SCOTUS’s decision is – How do I explain this to my child?
Jimmy Kimmel then decided to find out exactly what US kids these days are thinking about gay marriage, or if they even understand what’s going on at all. So, he had one of the people on his team go out and ask random kids what they think about marriage in general, gay marriage and even their thoughts on marriage for themselves, according to E! News.
The interviewer asked one little boy why two people would want to get married – but not only did he give an adorable response, he also appeared to be fairly eloquent!
“Because they love each other, and they just feel a connection I believe,” he answered.
But not every child can be so well informed! When a little girl was asked “what makes people gay,” she responded, “I got a broken leg!”
But one little girl who clearly explained what gay marriage is also added that not everyone her age might understand. Wise beyond her years, the girl admitted she wants to get married “when I’m 30.”
Another little boy told the interviewer that gay marriage was between two men, but women practice “lesbianism.” But that same boy had some questionable insights into marriage himself. Explaining to the interviewer for Jimmy Kimmel Live! why he doesn’t want to get married, he said,
“When you get married the other person is entitled to any money the other person has.“
Watch!!!
