Family Issues

If you have every brought up a family, you will have experienced many joys, and (hopefully) not too many problems.

This is an attempt to bring together some of the issues which never seem to go away.  They deserve to be understood and debated openly.  This is primarily a page for adults, although many of the items will be of interest to teenagers also.  As with everything on the Internet, some of the links will lead you to images and descriptions which you may find shocking or offensive, and which may not be suitable for minors.  If this possibility worries you, return now to my home page.

My daughter's 13 and pregnant: is abortion the best way out?	I think my child is gay: what can I do about it? (My parents don't know I'm gay - how can I tell them?)	Should my son be circumcised?
I think she may be using drugs....	Where can I get help for special needs?	My father is terminally ill and has no quality of life. He often says he cannot take any more. Can euthanasia ever be justified?
