My wife and I homeschool our five young children. Well, technically only 3 are old enough to be homeschooled. I do not like this most recent news out of San Diego. Praise God, we have almost the polar opposite of a bishop here in our diocese. He's legitimately listening to homeschooling families and not making any hasty policy decisions.

All that being said, I do not like the spirit of your comment. Would that we could have both kinds of groups at our parishes, as our "gay and trans" brethren deserve a place to encounter God's mercy just as much as homeschooling families.
But Danny was specifically saying gay and trans support groups. Authentic support groups for people struggling with same sex attraction like Courage and Encourage do not call themselves gay support groups because gay automatically implies you are participating in that lifestyle or supporting it. We don't have thief support groups or adulterer support groups in parishes, though thieves and adulterers should definitely be welcome in every parish.
