Bob, you need to do some research about these homophobic responses.

Comment On Question #324: "Can My Bipolar Mother Be A Control Freak?"

Comment submitted June 17, 2002: My mother is exactly the same [as the
mother referred to in Question 324]! I'm about to move just to get away from
her. I'm finally starting to notice, or have "flashbacks" of my childhood as
I watch her with my children, especially my eldest (who has mental problems
anyway). She just makes it harder to deal with him or to help him. My son
was diagnosed with Bipolar, and I was told that it does run in families, and
you can have other conditions along with it! Thus our mothers! My mother is
also a control freak. She's constantly trying to tell me how to "handle" my
son or my younger husband. We love our house, being in the country, but she
lives only a minute away, so we are going to move just to get further from
her. She is making it harder for my son to control his anger. The doctor and
the therapist said that we need to keep him away from her as much as
possible. I will not have my son grow up to have issues and relationship
problems the way I've had, because of her. My son's mental well-being,
self-esteem, his ability to be on his own when he's 18 or so, is more
important than her need to be "in charge", or her need to be "right all the
time"! Sound familiar?

CyberShrink's observation posted 6-17-02: We said, in response to Question #
324, that not every unwelcome character trait is attributable to a
particular mental illness. Being what you termed a "control freak" is not
necessarily related to Bipolar Disorder.

Gayanzy doesn't know how to "make" a snowwoman.
