I agree with the statement that your mother probably already knows or at least suspects. I know that if one of my children or grandchildren were gay I would know it and I would love them because NOTHING would make me not love my children or grandchildren. My family is the most important thing in my life and I love them and support them no matter what!
Those same rednecks are the ones who probably bullied everyone in school. There was a group of boys in my oldest granddaughter class who called themselves the "Carhart gang" because they all wore Carhart jackets and they were "redneck cowboys" They bullied everyone in school and no one did anything about it. If a kid was gay, or overweight, or different in any way they made their life miserable. My granddaughter is mixed race. There was only 4 African American students in the school of 1000. She was the only one in high school. They made it so hard on her that she finally changed schools her junior year. They called her the "N" word among other things. People like that must feel inferior themselves so they have to make fun of everyone else. I know you are not supposed to "hate" people but I really feel hate in my heart for people who hurt others so easily. It is easy to say" just ignore people like that but it is not so easy to do. Words do hurt even if they come from totally stupid people |
