Kids “Confused” in New Anti-Gay Ad

A new commercial airing in New Hampshire features children “confused” by the idea of two men or two women getting married. The ad is an attempt to stop the governor from signing a bill that would allow same-sex marriage in the state.

One child asks, “If my dad married a man, who would be my mom?” Another says, “I’m confused.”

The ad was produced by the National Organization for Marriage and CPR Action, a conservative New Hampshire group. “I’m Confused” follows NOM’s “Storm Is Gathering” video, for which the organization hired actors to play the part of ostracized doctors and churchgoers.

In New Hampshire, a marriage-equality bill recently passed the house and senate. It is currently awaiting the governor’s approval. Governor Lynch has said he would sign the bill pending revisions that would allow religious institutions to withhold services to married couples.
