Remarkable video, from the standpoint of the present time (2024). Jeanne Manford was a lioness, defending Morty against a hostile world and tenderly demonstrating unconditional love and acceptance for her son.
This was really powerful and deeply deeply emotional. I can relate to everything that she said , except going to prom . Having friends. And a supportive environment. I was and am still lonely. I want to have friends so bad .
Deeply moving, beautiful & inspirational 💜💙🤍🩷💜 I grew up in Nebraska too, a generation earlier & without tight-knit family. Indeed I ran & found it 🥰 My beautiful daughter (b. '98) transitioned @ 8 yo... Took me until 54 to realize I'm non-binary. As ridiculously challenging as that is all over the place, it has popped the cork of my JOY & I've never been more free or joyful as I am now-- I have so much LOVE to give everyone now!!!!!! 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ Sending you light & love 💜 I'm so so grateful you're in the world inspiring all of us. Meeting you someday would be a dream come true. You're a treasure & the sharing of your authentic vulnerability is EVERYTHING. Thank you!!!
What an amazing film! Thank you to everyone involved, thank you Joslyn for being vulnerable and sharing your journey, thank you PFLAG for sharing this widely and leading with love! 🩵🤍🩷
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful story, & for sharing it in such a tender, respectful, & authentic manner. As parents of a trans teenager in an area that wouldn't be considered progressive or even safe for trans rights, this means the world to us, & gives us hope. Thank you so very much! 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈💜
So sad. Well, you can't win 'em all...maybe your daughter will give you grandchildren and they might turn out normal...oh wait, sh!t. Why do these 'liberals' always feign this holier than thou "We accept" bs facade. It's ok to be mad, your child has rejected the sacrifices of all of your ancestors, thousands of generations of people that fought and toiled to provide for their offspring...only to be ended with one selfish, hedonistic brat. If you're not angry, there is something wrong with you.
Jay Bakker you should be ashamed!!!! Jay rapture is an English word not in the bible. It just means the day Christ returns for his people... THAT IS IN THE BIBLE.... Then Jay you recently.said Quote' " You don't believe in the whole bible." So what happened? Did you suddenly realize your QUEER GOSPEL can't be defended using the old or new testaments???? You clearly haven't read the scripture you claim to represent!!!!! MAYBE YOU ARE A FULL FLEDGED SATANIC MASON NOW!!! Either way. I will be HAPPY to debate you any day of the week LIVE ON RU-vid!!!! Its too bad about your mother. But when she openly turned against God he could No longer help her.... You yourself are HURTING YOUR FATHERS MINISTRY....... HE IS GOING RIGHT BACK INTO THE GARBAGE THAT BROUGHT HIM DOWN THE FIRST TIME.... AND PERSONALLY I THINK YOU ARE ONE REASON!!!!!! THUS FAR HE HASN'T OPENLY ENFORCED LGBTQ+ AND I PRAY HE.NEVER DOES!!!!!!! I PRAY YOULL GROW A SPINE AND STOP THIS TRASH THAT YOU CALL GRACE!!!!! YOU ARE TURNING GODS GRACE INTO LASIVIUSNESS. I MIGHT HAVE SPELLED IT WRONG...... IT MEANS LITERALLY TO TURN GODS GRACE INTO LAWLESSNESS!!!!! ANYTHING GOES GRACE!!!!! That ain't how it works. You shouldn't be a minister until you first UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE YOURSELF!!!!! You might feel a calling but Satan is using you sir.... MY.PEOPLE ARE DESTROYED BECAUSE OF LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!!!!! WE ARE LIVING IN THE DAY OF FAMINE..... THE FAMINE OF THE WORD OF THE LORD...... You will NEVER see me now to Satan or the the LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY.... I know they are a violent group. But God didn't say that I had to be some can that gets kicked around.... THE BIBLE SAYS IF YOUR BROTHER SMITES THEE ON ONE CHEEK OFFER HIM THE OTHER..... THEY ARE NOT MY BROTHER..... YES IT DOES SAY RESIST NOT EVIL.... BUT EVERYTHING HAS TO BE TAKEN IN PROPER CONTEXT..... BECAUSE I CAN SHOW YOU OTHER SCRIPTURES THAT SAY DIFFERENT!!!! IT ALL AGREES PERFECTLY IF YOU READ IT IN CONTEXT..... READING IN CONTEXT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!!! BUT IT WON'T CHANGE A SINGLE POINT OF GODS MORAL LAW!!!!! SCRIPTURE IS CLEAR HOMOSEXUALITY IS A SIN WITHOUT USING THE MODERN ENGLISH WORD...... PEOPLE WERE PUT TO DEATH FOR THAT SIN IN THE OLD TESTAMENT TIMES..... JESUS TOOK OUR PAYMENT WICH IS DEATH ONLY IF WE REPENT... YOU CAN'T SAY I REPENT AND THEN WAVE A GAY PRIDE FLAG!!!! HAVE YOU NOTICED THOSE GAY PRIDE EVENTS TO LOVE TO CHAMPION HAVE LOTS OF OUTRIGHT SATANIST??????? I SAW YOUNG GIRLS AND BOYS WEARING A SHIRT. ADVERTISING THE SATANIC TEMPLE........ PS. Jay it's time that pastor Jay Banker REPENTS.... Ask God to put you back on the right track..... Otherwise you'll believe a lie and be damnd!!! John 3:16 & AFTERWARDS.... Negan
Honestly i see both sides of this situation. Both sides hold strong beliefs about it. If you pick a side the other side demonizes you and if your try and stay neutral then both sides hate you for. It picking there side. It seems to be a loosing fight regardless of what side you choose.
My son wasn’t even tested until he was 22,even though he showed signs at a young age. They told me he had extremely high anxiety and would grow out of it and put him on 2 anxiety meds and a extra “emergency “ anxiety medication ( in case he knew he was going to be doing something that would make him feel more “anxious “. Finally, he was tested and confirmed that a lot of things that he experiences, that non Autistic people don’t, are things that are part of him being autistic: for example, he hears things louder than most people ( tv, when he watches it himself: he watches it on 1-2), he can hear every clock in the house ticking, he can hear the refrigerator running , he can hear lights that make humming sound. Different foods he can’t eat because of the texture. He gets uncomfortable ( has to leave a area if someone raises their voice or he thinks they have and also if there’s conflict on tv. He can’t be around large crowds for to long. These are a few things that affect him. Wanted to mention, there’s a book called,” Unmasking Autism “ that my son says is a great book. I also know other people who are part of the LGBTQIA + community and are Autistic that have read it and thought it was a good book.
