My parents smurfed, and I came out. My parents still smurf, because that's what people do. If I were to think that was 'unpleasant' then I'd consider myself quite immature. I'm sure they have a jolly good time, that they can go ahead and keep having. I AM HERE BECAUSE OF WHAT THEY DID, AND MOST LIKELY STILL DO. So what say can I even have about it?
The whole step parent thing is different I'm sure. Well, that is to say I don't know anything about it. So my opinion is geared towards biological parents.
IF YOU FIND IT UNPLEASANT, AND ARE REALLY UPSET ABOUT IT, smurfing go outside for a half hour, and hang out.
The night is more beautiful than the day anyways.
