the mass by a family
homoparental a homoparental family is
a family like yours but in this
case we are two dads our daughter from
child always with marry have a
family have a successful career
all the things that society
he said he could not have to be gay
however I did it but this one was not
the biggest challenge that I
I would face in my life
this what would not be after I never
has touched live discrimination when
we are arriving in Monterrey in search of
a school for our daughter
We find a school that fit
to our needs
After a week, everything flows
perfect I receive a call from
direction with sense of urgency to the
which completely unraveled me
I felt that my heart was destroyed
above all I knew it was about a subject
Our family immediately when
I could direct with the director
this was waiting for me with a
look of total disapproval to what I
ask why are you here true and
then at that time it was I do not know
but tell me your speech start of the
next way I love the
programs modern family the new normal
with theme or parental all
programs that I mentioned
however, I believe that this institution
Monterrey and the country is not ready
for a family like yours
I rarely run out of words
in my day to day this moment was one
of those she continued explaining that to
the school and go godparents godparents who
they really did not disclose more of their
lives but they were part of a family not
he even said that there were families
of dad and mom that each
who makes his life
separated and that he was probably
gay and she took her life part but in
the school came as a family
obviously I could not accept from
No way to give an example to
our daughter based on lies about
everything after everything we have
accomplished
she offered to write a letter
where he pleaded for us before the
owners to obtain the permanence of
Alejandra at that school
Alejandra our daughter the letter was
completely discriminatory but about
all offensive to us the aspect
declaring the following points
we could not present the two to the
school
At the same time we could not meet
none of the parents or mothers of
family we could not participate in
no school event or a festival
but above all he asked us to
We apologize for all the inconveniences
that we are causing them
it was there where I left that meeting
completely devastated and with a feeling
of wanting 2000 all afternoon and not knowing
you’re welcome
came home I tell my husband what
that had happened and we let everything
will probably pass this to the best is
the shock of the new one was going to happen
three weeks went by in what
We received another call from the director
this time he asked me to go to
introduce me directly with her arrived
the day
a very hard day where we felt a lot
anxiety we present ourselves
we had not even entered the campus
when two security guards do not
they were waiting and not just that
there was the receptionist with the box
Alejandra’s school supplies came in
we enter the part of it before the
the door and they did not know the tools
schoolchildren to the ground
this part was what was enough for me
especially because they treated us like
criminals preventing entry to the
school and at that time they tell us
they move away from that officially expelled from
the school at this time we
we started asking what was the
reason why this was happening
immediately my body reacted and
he started to vomit there approximately
like for 15 minutes
then it was like a reaction of my
body to a very unpleasant situation
we left obviously we did what
we had to do
we contacted defense agencies of
human rights to the secretariat of
public education to prophecy even
for the whole issue of payments that have been
fact and television media of
communication
the case was converted to the notes
they took relevance not only local but
nationally and internationally and it was there
where we realized that the greatest
tool to make visible the
families was to be in all these media
of television and that people would give
realize that we really exist and do not
invisibilize us and do nothing to
respect but otherwise it will be
and will be outside and be visible
after this we knew that I was not going to
stop there and we need to achieve
do something
more something fundamental something that will generate
an impact on society like us
We were looking for something that
will generate a better future for our
children a more inclusive future a
future without prejudice but above all
diverse
this is how this incredible is born
tool my family like yours
my family like yours is a story
for children who are the future of
our society that explains the
different family models exist in
our society a story including a
diverse story but mostly made with
the illusion of being able to change the world
this story
it means a lot to us as
parents but above all as citizens
wanting to look for this social impact of
acceptance of diversity and inclusion
after we launched this story it’s
which is the greatest legacy that
we could leave our daughter
we realized that it was not just the
message the fundamental message of this
story is to show that all families
all the different family models
the common denominator they have is the
love and that makes my family be like
yours
Thank you
[Applause]
