What Was Up With The Parents?

A reliable witness told me in Belleville in about 2003-2004 that she heard I had said homosexuality was the fault of parents. [If anyone would like the name of the witness, they can ask me privately.--Won't give the name here.] And I certainly didn't mean to be interpreted in that way! The idea had come from a comment in a telephone message, mentioned in a separate entry, but it wasn't what I meant. There's some research--by competent counsellors--which shows that a lack from a same-sex parent while growing up can be a significant, contributing factor. However, it's not the only one. And when people reach an adult age, they have to be responsible for their own behaviour and not to blame their parents! [Right?] Parents do the best they know how. I'm not a professional counsellor to explain this matter. *** As I've already stated earlier, my landlady's parents were involved in her life quite a bit; and she made a point of introducing me to them. She also seemed to have quite mixed feelings about them--including by making derogatory comments [about her parents] when I had barely met her. And when I was moving out, my landlady's father told me he knew he wasn't perfect; and I accepted it. No problem from me!
