• I'd be devastated if my son grows up to be a hetero. I mean, I'd still love him ... but as a parent you just envision a certain life for your child.

This is because now the ultimate reason for attending family gatherings is for your children to have the time of their lives with their cousins. Little kids love their cousins.

Cousins are the barometers of how fun a family get-together will be. “Are the cousins going to be there? Fun!

It is an approach that works the other way too: sometimes the footage has amazing qualities that you did not expect.
