valarltdI'm having a Debbie moment.
My Extra Kid got kicked out of his parents house.
What kind of parent throws their barely 18, non-self-supporting, carless, not-yet-out-of-high-school child out of the house over movies!
He rented Monster with Charlize Theron and watched it privately. The Gay Quotient of the film finally tipped the balance over, and his father gave him the boot. He has until the weekend. They know he's gay and have been working on him. The only thing they haven't done is sent him to Love in Action.
He has a place to stay, and he knows my futon is always there too.
But I just want to shake his folks. They have a brilliant, funny, wonderful boy and all they see is a hell-bound faggot.

Re: The D-Man checks in
Date: 2005-11-03 06:44 pm (UTC)2) Of course it was an excuse. They've been looking for one since he turned 18.
3) Living in your parents' house IS a right, at least until you're out of High School.
4) DADT does NOT apply. 5 words out of this kid and you know he's gay.
5) It's a piss-poor Christian witness to throw your own kid out of the house over who he is. That's like saying "God hates you because you have blue eyes. See, right here, Leah had blue eyes and was unloveable, and so are you!" Missed a great chance to play "love the sinner hate the sin" there, rev. (Since he's not active, much to his eternal lament, he still falls under "not actively sinning.")
