| Message | I am a family member of Bryce and love him no matter what sexuality he is. He is a great kid and always has been and that is because he has had wonderful parents. His parents have always loved and supported him and have been so proud of him. Yes they are strong in their faith, as I am that does not make them bad people. You blame it on the "bible belt" but it is not that. It is two parents who are shocked beyond belief. They are in a position that they have no idea what to do but they do know to love him. There are many parents who would react like this. A parent finding a relationship in a heterosexual relationship that they believe is not healthy for their child will do whatever they need to to "protect" their child. I am in NO way saying that Travis is a person that is unhealthy for Bryce. I just know that parents do what they think is best for their child, I am a parent too. I also have known Bryce his whole life and know what a loving caring person he is. We all love him and will always love him. I don't know where he is but I am sure he is safe. Please stop berating his family for what they feel is right. You are making his mom sound horrible and she is nothing like that at all, her kids are her life. She would do anything for them.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Webmasters Note...Firstly, I am not berating Debra. I have not edited her words on the website. If she is being berated, perhaps it is because hundreds of thousands of people believe what she did and is continuing to do is inappropriate. Contrary to what she may think, I do not hold any animosity for her. I understand why she did what she did. That does not however, make it okay. As she is great at stating, Bryce is an adult and there comes a time, no matter how loving a parent may be, that they must step aside from their child's life. When it come to matters if romance this is that time. Debra knows exactly what to do. She just does not wish to do it. She was and maybe still is under the impression that gays can still be pushed into the closet and made to stay quiet. She is learning differently. I doubt she would have wanted her mother in law to get negatively invovled in her relationship with her husband. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you means just that and there are no exemptions for mothers. She judged Bryce's relationship and got involved. I have done unto her as she did unto him. If she didn't want that, she should have thought about what she preaches and practice it. |
