I'll Try To Stay In Touch

I'll do my best to make comments and add posts, but I do have 2 jobs, and I'm hoping to expand my private practice with more glbt clients, but I work in a school as a counselor - pay the benefits, you know.  Life can be hard, can't it?  Anyway, I understand many scenarios and have skills to be a counselor, but I wasn't an out gay person as a teen-ager, and I'm missing that piece.But I can be compassionate and supportive. i have 3 children who have gone through adolescence, I myself am gay and have had the experience of "coming out" to people and have to continue doing so all the time.  I know the more history and posts a blog has, the better. I also am working on changing this blog name!!!! can't master it yet. 
Check out one site - the "It Gets Better" site which offers affirmations for teens letting them know that they will NOT always feel the lack of support or abandonment that they may feel now.  I have seen their commercials on tv.  Please know WE are a gay-friendly site.  We are not trying to convert anyone to be non-gay.  It is not a choice but it is who we love and are attracted to.  I myself believe I was attracted to a man long ago, but as I got older, I moved along that continuum as my life changed, and I am ONLY attracted to women.  Perhaps because I'm old enough and back then, I didn't even think of the gay lifestyle. But I also think I was meant to have my children, as they help make the world a better place and are very accepting people.  When I told my son about me, he said "Cool."
