Should kids & family movies have gay characters?

I don't know that kids & family movies "should" have gay characters.  But, they should reflect the people that make up our society.  Just the way you expect to see blacks, Hispanics, Asians, etc. in the movie because they are the people we live with in society, if a gay person naturally works into the story, I don't have a problem with it.  I don't think the movie should  be about that person, or over emphasize that person, but you should not pretend that gay people do not exist when making a movie, even when making a kids & family movie.
