[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry he's not here, too. Unfortunately Bobby doesn't feel welcome due to the explicit comments about same-sex couples from the family. Anyways, he's been doing yadda yadda yadda... If they really want him to attend, they'll go back and address the comment. If not, they'll have their answer. If you merge it into the discusison about what he's up to and doing, they have the excuse, if they want, to ignore the comment and not revisit the topic.[/quote] I like this option.[/quote] I like this, too, except that it sounds a little like your brother wants to be there but isn't sure of his welcome. I'd tweak that part a bit. You can gently stand up against the hate speech without being strident, so you should not let homophobic comments pass. I like what a PP said about showing your kids how to stand up against hate speech. Let us know what happens![/quote]
