Summary

Parental Disclosure Effects explores how disclosing an LGBTQ identity to parents shapes an individual's life. It examines the significant impact of parental reactions—acceptance or rejection—on mental health, relationship patterns, and overall well-being within the LGBTQ community. Did you know that parental acceptance is directly linked to higher self-esteem and lower rates of depression among LGBTQ individuals? The book highlights the importance of family dynamics and family support in fostering positive outcomes. This insightful work analyzes the disclosure process, exploring diverse parental responses and their long-term consequences. It uses a blend of quantitative studies and qualitative interviews to provide a nuanced perspective on family relationships. The book begins with foundational concepts of LGBTQ identity development and family systems, progresses into the impact of parental reactions, and concludes with strategies for families and therapists. It emphasizes the need for informed support systems to mitigate potential harm, making it a valuable resource for psychologists, family therapists, and anyone interested in LGBTQ rights.

    When God created the world, he considered everything to be good, and when God created man, everything was very good. With the fall into sin, evil entered our world. That was the beginning of mankind's misfortune.  The song, 'Wonderful Grace' sung by Chey at the end of the sermon, gives the listener an opportunity to reflect on the sermon.

    Sam Houston and Santa Anna: The...

    More than most men in history, Sam Houston was a contradictory individual. He was born in the United States while George Washington was in office, and in an era when the native people who were gradually being subjugated were considered savages, he called them friends and even lived among them. He was abandoned by his first wife and, after suffering the sting of divorce, married again in the manner of his native family, only to abandon his Indian bride to return to life among his own people. In the interim, he fought for their rights in the halls of government, defending them even as he obtained favor in the eyes of one of their worst enemies. He seemed to have the right mix of charm and grit to make a successful life with him and their large family. 
    	Though he was born and raised elsewhere, Houston is considered one of Texas’ truest sons, and during his life he fought for its independence from Mexico and then for its submission to the United States. He owned slaves himself but spent his entire political career fighting against the spread of “the American cancer” to the West. Then, when his beloved state seceded from the Union, he not only opposed secession but sacrificed his own position to protest it, only to turn around and support the Confederacy during the last years of his life.  
    The butcher of the Alamo and Goliad. The traitor who sold half of Mexico. The Napoleon of the West. Mr. Fifteen Nails. The Mother Country’s seducer. Almost 150 years after his death, a lot of name-calling is still being directed towards Antonio López de Santa Anna, president of Mexico 11 times in the 19th century, and today, the vast majority of his compatriots consider him the greatest traitor in history. It was not like that in his day; actually, there had never been a more popular man in Mexico, or anyone more eulogized and essential than General Santa Anna. In life he was the most famous - and infamous - Mexican general and politician.
