Alla:

YES, agreed. I remember one of my friends who used to be a teacher was 
telling me of the seventeen year old in her class who killed herself 
because her family disowned her when she came out.

I mean, you are going to love your kid any less now? I mean, really? 
That she wants to love girls not boys and is the same person otherwise.

Horrifying IMO.

Alla.
