[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 569747, member: 2315"] I hate those newsletters. I think they are just the delusional ramblings of parents who close their eyes to many shortcommings. I don't even read such letters when they come. I might skim them and then I toss them in the trash cause tht is what they are. Just garbage ment to continue and maintain the comeupance of the writer. for instance, I have a dear friend whose son was using extacy and I worked up the courage and told them. They knew all my difficult child problems and that I wasn't judging just trying to help. They did nothing you would expect a parent to do. In fact they defended their son as "just a kid having fun". He didn't get hooked on drugs thankfully and is a very sucessful adult making a great salary and living a life of celebrity in the big apple. But it has since come out that he is gay. He came out to his family and also to my daughter. His parents told him that he isn't to ever talk about it to any of their family or friends because they would have to move. Their son is a wonderful guy. I love him dearly and know how this attitude hurts him. They have never breathed a word to me (mom's best friend) or even to mom's cousin that they do everything with. The son was not allowed to bring his partner to his sister's wedding although another gay relative was. Their son is hurting but to hear the parents you would think that life is just peachy for all of them. @Janet, I remember that leter but unfortunately do not have a copy. I thought it quite funny at the time. -RM [/QUOTE]
