[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 744840, member: 1550"] If you have the kind of relationship with E that includes talks about things that affect both of you, I think it's worth addressing all of this with E. Not in a condemning way. Just hot chocolate and "Would you mind if I ask you a few Mom questions and pick your brains? I really care about how you feel...There is no right or wrong answer. I would just like to know, if you dint mind." I keep it laid back and try not to respond in judgmental ways. I am often surprised and usually happy I asked. I certainly dont know every young person on the planet, but the ones I do know are very laid back and accepting of anything LGTB. My kids consider it no biggie. Sonic is gay. When he told us, Jumper started crying because he hadnt felt able to tell us. (This surprised me too but the response he received was great!) E's in laws laws grew up when there was still a lot of judgment. I think this has really changed. Its the kids who must accept. Who cares about the in laws? If you are like me (and I think we are very much alike in many ways) having holidays together with these stuck up people isnt a fun idea anyway. I never got jealous of rich people. Like you, if I had tons of money I would love to start an animal rescue! Yes! Yes! Or a place for the homeless. Or, if I had enough, both. You find peace and try to have a lovely, quiet night with R. Love and light! [/QUOTE]
