I'm fortune enough to not be in this exact situation, but I know people who are in similar situations, and I myself deal with a lot of anxiety about my family's acceptance of me. This is...scarily accurate. The indignation, the anger borne from pain, it's...visceral.

What's scarier than this being real is the fact that many people don't have this kind of support system - they don't have a Jack to go to.

It's messed up.

So while I didn't enjoy being put through these secondhand emotions, I know I needed to. I know that it's important to feel this - for everyone.
