An Insightful Story October 26, 2006 |
Dear SubscriberAn Insightful Story by a Perceptive TeenIn the story, "Too Late" reader Amanda Gilbank, fictionalizes the outcome of the "coming out" of her sister, who is a lesbian teen.The reason this story is so significant is that it illustrates why it is essential for parents to look into the hearts of their children and guide their unfolding. As you know, I teach parents how to do this in my book, Keepers of the Children . Amanda's story warns us of the horrifying consequences that can befall our families when we fail to help our children become who they truly are, when we judge them harshly or make them feel less than human because they're different from us. It illustrates the pain of non-acceptance. Whatever your biases, if you're parent: it is important for you to read this story. I hope it will bring tears to your eyes and open up your heart. The first paragraph of the story appears below. The entire story appears on my web site. Too Late by Amanda Gilbank
