Hi anita,

I don’t think it has to do with wanting to  feel loved or accepted. I know people with stable relationships, supportive family and good background who still do this. They are quite close to me, it is not just an appearance, and they are just as insensitive. Also I am not insensitive nor are people who have actually been cast out by their own families.

I am all for raising kids with love. But  waiting for the whole world to do the same does not make sense.
