    It is wonderful reading something like this! Particularly after all the stories I've been reading here about parents who take the news so badly.

    I really like one part in that letter: "The only thing I need you to plan is to bring home OJ and bread after class. We are out, like you now."

    Let's hope one day all parents will be like this....

    That is awesome! It would be great if all parents reacted in such a supportive fashion.

    It prompted my mother to give me a full on apology for not being that way when I came out. :slight_smile:
