An update about my son wanting to go to youth group...
I decided to email the youth pastor before talking to my son. I asked the church's views on LGBTQ rights, single parents, how salvation focused their teachings were, etc.
I got back the attached email.
So I sat my son down and explained that this church would not accept his trans aunt and friends, his queer aunt, me as a single mom who's never been married.
His response was "well that's stupid, now I don't want to go".
People here were right - he was looking for a group to make friends at. We've decided on Scouts (Canada, much more liberal than the US version) and either swimming lessons or karate.
We are going to go to the Unitarian Church and see if he wants to go regularly.
SO RELIEVED. I am so thankful I have an awesome kid.
fricking unitarians lmao

Good grief talk about going off the rails. Two of your kids
out and the other has two baby daddies 
her parents must have done a heck of a job raising raising them
From her previous post she was having panic attacks at the thought of her son joining lmao
Also
What's even the point?
maybe she hasn't gotten as much freedom from religion as she might have thought

Unitarians are just people who want a "feel good" community without any dogmatic strings attached because that can cause negative vibes.
