My sister is into the next thing beyond homeschooling: unschooling. You are just exposing a stereotype (as she does). My father is into gardening. I am not. Why on earth is it bad to find something you like and stick with it (being obsessed for months?!?... why not let them be into sth they like for years!). Who do you think you are to decide for s/w else based on your guts feeling? IT/Software isn't bad. But people have been believing strange things any time in history and influenced others (with deep, sincere and honest conviction).

I hope your kids just turn out to be fine with it. You are betting on them that they are just like you.

I hope that the ones that get badly affected by your good intension can forgive you (for your strong believes)

Their father.

I trust they see and will always see that I'm doing my best.

I trust that there is nothing to forgive, and that these hypothetical "bad effects" are all in your own worrying mind.

people, people, there are people just like you and discussion won't change them (never did, never will). Otherwise those ppl/opinions won't exist. But you are just a (controversial) stereotype: Many with your queer thoughs exist, you are nothing special and you offend (obviously). And these ppl think even like "I know better and have just to convince the rest": Go home you are drunk.

I hope that a long going process may start running in you mind based on this/your HN experience.
