Oh, I'm so sorry that you've got to put up with all this bullshit.

Personally, I would be drawing the line in the sand and saying "no church, or no grandchild visits," but I am NOT A NICE PERSON when it comes to this.

My mom and I are pretty close and she doesn't get to see many of her grandchildren because of distance or damaged relationships with my sisters. Not being able to see Jake would be terrible for her. This is something I need to fix, not withdraw from.

Maybe it calls for telling your stepfather to butt the hell out? Again, I'm NOT NICE when someone is stepping on a strongly held principle of mine.

This may be coming from having to be Very Firm with my mother about not criticizing my teenager's gender non-conformity.

I've been considering it. And trying to convince myself that "You can fuck right off with your white knight complex" is not the best phrasing to use if I do. There's so much I want to say to him, all the detritus of years of emotional abuse, it all gets jumbled over and around in my head.

This is what drafts are for. And beta readers. ;-)

Oh right, that's why I got married. ;P
