Hi! If you& #39;re meeting family tomorrow and someone has come out or transitioned since the last time you saw them, please don& #39;t give them a hard time about it, even if it conflicts with your beliefs.

Coming out can be really stressful for many in the LGBTQ+ Community, and some people may wait longer than others. I have many friends, both out or still "in the closet," who were/are worried that people they love would hate them if they found out.
Some people I know have had panic attacks and can& #39;t sleep in the days leading up to coming out to their family. This is really, really hard for many of them. Please don& #39;t add to the burden or make their worst fears come true by giving them a hard time.
Even if it& #39;s confusing to you because of your personal or religious beliefs, please just don& #39;t cut them out of your life. They& #39;re still your family, and it& #39;s worth taking time to understand their position and who they are.
And even if you find it sinful, remember that God still gave us a brain and a heart so that we could still love people, even if they& #39;re a bit different.
