Answer :

When my sister’s two step-kids came out,it was a non-event…for my sister that is.It just didn’t matter to her if they were gay or not.If they they said they wanted to change their gender,her reaction might be different.I tend to think not though.She was always more concerned with their well being and GPAs. ;) She is a good mom to them. That will be the next thing I ask her when I see her
