that sounds like a lot more fun than having a meltdown if your father doesn't let you throw away his beer bottle. and of course since I have twins there must be one for both of them. last night at dinner it was "dada I want to throw away your bottle." I said "I'm not done." Then it was "drink it now dada and drink another one now for nick." they literally are peer pressuring me to chug alcohol.
The boy still finds the garbage truck absolutely fascinating. The claw they use to pick up limbs and stuff absolutely blows his mind.
I honestly think it's a mental illness. It strikes me as someone who does not have a firm grip or does not want to deal with reality as they know it. The guy has XY chromosomes. Nothing's gonna change that. The brain is a funny and complex thing that we may never fully understand and stuff like this comes from a place of pain and brokenness. Our society cheers people on as they pursue happiness because we are all wealthy enough to want to have the right to pursue our own happiness. How each individual feels at present is prized most. But courageous isn't pursuing happiness, it's giving up your own goals and perceived happiness to give to others.
So your sons wanted you to get drunk, awesome! My oldest still gives the guy that drives the trackhoe most of the time shit. Last year, we were clearing some property, I had to pick him up from his mother's day out. He wanted to go by and ride on the track hoe. We get up there, he's in the middle of tearing down a huge sycamore tree. My son told him it was his turn and he needed to leave. To this day, my son will still give him a dirty look when he's around the shop. It's pretty funny.
I've heard a couple of people mention heavy drug use in the 80s may have contributed to frying his brain. *disclaimer*-I have no idea. Just throwing it out there.
I'm all for doing what makes you happy, but I tend to agree with you. Also this takes a level of selfishness in that i'm sure it will screw up his kids a little.
Being that they live in the spotlight and social media being what it is, even if they are accepting, they're going to deal with some shit from here on out.
I kinda sorta knew Dr. Adcock's son (transgender Chemistry professor) at UT. It kinda came up in conversation once. You could tell his son wasn't what I would call supportive about it.
Spare me with the courageous act stuff. It's not like there weren't pictures floating around. This guy simply made official what everyone already knew and suspected. That being said, I couldn't care less about it....just another wacky chapter in their dysfunctional family's story.
agreed. they don't dance around it. they ignore it completely and act like he's working on a cure for cancer.
I don't understand it at all but I think it'd be more of a hormonal imbalance that leads to the mind thinking and associate differently than normal. Even if this is just a ploy for money and fame, she/he still should be free to do it.
