Do you accept your children/other people for who they are?

One of the best things I've read on acceptance comes from an online friend of mine:

I would no sooner want my daughter straight than I would want my son white. It is the world I want to change, not my kids. Julia at IAT, with permission

I suppose, failing to change the world in one fell swoop, is to change ourselves.
