They're like the grandparents a lot of our kids don't have. I should really return the interest and check out a meeting. I wish my parents would join (not because they need to be more supportive, but because I think they'd enjoy the support themselves) but they never will. They're also not joiners. Maybe they and your mother should form a group (ha ha) We get PFLAG parents coming to some of our parenting group events and it’s always nice to see them.

Unfortunately, our attendance was so low, that it was difficult to get excited about meetings and such. My parents attended very rarely, despite their unending support of us. I got a lot of questions about why I, as a lesbian, was leading this group. I always responded "I'm my own best friend!" I was the leader of our PFLAG group for years.
