Saiph,
I just wanted to tell you thanks for telling me about how you barely remember your mom not being supportive because of the way she acts now. It makes me feel better. I also wanted to say thanks for sharing how your extended family reacted. The only person I've told in my family is my grandma (she's my best friend in the family). I have a lot of religious people in my family that I'm worried are going to make an effort to "save" him from hell, you know what I mean? I love these people, but I will not allow them to do that to my son and I'm afraid it will cause a rift in the family that I have left. There are a few rifts already that have me basically cut off from a good portion of my family. There are child molestors and alcoholics in my family and when I "outed" THEM, there was an uproar and an outcry against me, even from the ones who weren't accused.
