[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, another vote for re-thinking sending her to stay with them for an extended period of time. This soon after she has come out, she probably doesn't have much practice blowing off well-meaning bigots or defending herself against faux "concern". She needs support right now, not attacks on her sexuality (however well-meaning). And if they start questioning her and she does try to take them on, it could damage her relationship with them irreparably.[/quote] +1 The other thing I'd say is that she is very likely in the "LOOK AT ME! I'M FREEEEE. I'M GAAAAAY" phase of her coming out right now. That's a normal part of the process. It will pass. We all went through it. But pairing a 13 year-old who is brimming with newfound confidence and likely politics with grandparents who are, at best, well-meaning, is not a recipe for success. [/quote]
