is easy - try explaining to a seven year old that one of her best friends two mums was actually her dad who'd had a sex change. My daughter's eyes did widen a bit but I wanted her to hear it from me as it was about to come out in the classroom as the said couple were about to divorce(!) The parents were the nicest of people and became good friends. We all went trick or treating on Halloween!
