I have a male friend who was adopted. His parents had one son, then thought they couldn't have any more so adopted my friend when he was a baby. He is a lovely man. He is sensitive, vulnerable, a brilliant friend, beautiful and intelligent. His parents later had another son who doted on my friend. When he was 16 his parents kicked him out because he came out as gay and his little brother (early teens) started to copy him.
That still makes me sad to this day. Why do people hurt each other so much.
