Don't you think it is kind of a difficult question to answer, given I have never had any contact with your parents, let alone were around them throughout your childhood?

I can tell you my folks were largely absent, but also held me accountable despite it. Also, I grew up seeing them work and make sacrifices and also place value on being entrepreneurial. Both good and bad, it influenced me.

As for drug and alcohol use, me and my wife will largely be leading by example. We probably won't have to say much about it, as my folks never said anything about it to me. Basically, when I got to be a teenager, my mom told me if I wanted to drink, I could do it at home and if I ever drank while out, call and no questions would be asked to get a ride home. I never drank at home and I never made the call.
Good answer. Supports my claim. My parents weren't saints. But they were the best they could be. My mom is actually a saint though, lol. She drank peach schnapps one time and never drank again, lol. She raised me right. My decisions have been all mine. Trust me.
You have said in the past your mom is super liberal. Just curious in what way?

Keep in mind, all I have to go on is what you have stated. From what I know, you have parents you described as liberal in some way. 4 kids, all substance abusers at one point. A gay child. You have self described as a substance abuser. You are very liberal. You have a trans child. I believe you also indicated some molestation.

That is all I know and it comes from you. It does not speak to failure. It speaks to a lot of alternative lifestyle, and curiosity about the source. Nothing makes the people bad except bad behavior. Being gay or trans, or a substance abuser does not make a person bad. That being said, it is not ideal in terms of being the person with those traits.
She became super liberal since my father passed away in 2004. I haven't changed my child's name. My kid is almost 17 years old, and I still am paying for therapy. I ain't letting my kid get a dick and singing kumbya while beating bongo drums and saying this isn't hard. My kid is my personal business and why I don't bring it up much. It hurts a lot bro. Touchy subject for sure.

And my dad voted Democrat his whole life. He would probably have not voted for Obama or be a Democrat today. Want more back story?
I get that completely. It SHOULD be hard on you emotionally. If not, you would be dead inside. That is why I first and foremost say we have to accept those who have made the decision. but let's not overreach and craft a new world before we understand the consequences of doing so.

Same with my grandfather. A Kennedy Democrat or a union guy is hardly the same as the identity politic driven party of today. Tell some of those old union Democrats from the 1970's that their party would one day be in support of mass illegal migration. How do you think that would go over?
Is the Republican party the same? Fiscal conservatives lol.
Sure, neither party is static. Trump took a fairly hard line on illegal immigration, and by all accounts, he has been trying to keep that promise. Democrats used to be the same way, seems almost like they flipped just to be on the opposite side of Trump, not because there is big support for illegal invasions by voters.

In my current business, I deal with the charity fundraising bullshit all the time. Too much self promotion and/or profit taking and not enough actual contributing to make it real charity for my taste.
I have never did a fundraising show to promote my band. I am pretty popular as a musician as it is. Always been asked. And if it goes to a good cause, I'm usually down for it. Always to promote the cause, not me. I lose tons of money playing these shows. Trust me, my wife is annoyed that I do so many. But having vets come up to me, and their families, to thank me is special.

Think about the hours of practice time, the money to get to the show, and not getting paid. Having my whole week evolve around giving back something. I don't care about my band getting recognition. At all.
I feel like the exploitation is not occurring at your level.

Why don't you do paying gigs and just give your money to the charity?

I do paying gigs all the time. But I am a sucker for dudes in wheelchairs who have fought for our country. And I give my own money to charity too. It's not like all I ever do is charity work. And those charity gigs are gigs that I donate all that money to charity. I do what I can.

I just find a lot of economic inefficiency (and inequality) at such things. It always feels like there are some giving a whole lot and others giving very little, and sometimes the organizer is getting more than the recipient.

Pete has cancer and needs money.

What about people in need who are not Pete? Why not just give Pete money instead of the dog and pony show?

It spreads the word and brings awareness to the cause. You're a business man. You know how that works.

I was just thinking the other day about how cancer needs a big PR campaign to make people aware of it.

Awareness and exposure. Two of the words you are most likely to hear before someone tries to get you to do something for nothing.

"Hey, bring the food truck out to our event, it will be great exposure!" = Dead give away you will make no money

I have had people donates 10s of thousands of $$$ in my lifetime. Surely they would have done it anyway? Also, pink ribbons and shit has made others aware that breast cancer is like really really bad.

Pretty sure the Chris Spielman family is not pocketing the money we raise for his dead wife. Hell, my company does the whole pink tshirt for breast cancer awareness during the month. But ya know....pink ribbons be dumb.
