Oh please do tell! Give it to us to read… if its ok for you … oh saucy bit that one is (got an ear infection and tried drinking Tawny Port… to see if it will fight the infection) seems to have a rather interesting effect on me… but back to the subject. Would be interesting to read what they said to you … Anthony thanks for following up with AMA, the Australian Psychologists and Australian Psychiatrists Associations. Would it be a good thing to ask the president of AMA who is Kerry… she married a woman… you know her? Hmmmm would she have some impact. If our brothers or sister are struggling iwth their sexuality, its more than likely they will come across these books and will only have these books to go by and feel doomed. I worry about those ones who may feel that life is not worth living because they haven’t been healed of their same sex attraction or desires.


I wonder if there is anything we can do? I don’t mind standing out front of Koorong Book and making statement and most likely I will be pulled up at Cruch if someone there finds out. Its a tough one… should we wait till someone attemps something horrible such as taking their own lives or do we take actions as a preventative measure.


Hmmmm I am going to bed… sorry the Tawny Port is having a very rapid affect on me. Smile. Good night.


Craig.

Thanks Jannah,


Muffling a giggle 😮 … oh 😯 … what was I expecting 😕 … something longer, with a bit more meat in it … phhffff. 😆 … is that all? Sigh. 🙄


Sigh… I just can’t get over it… and I can’t stop laughing so loud! Oh my goodness! What a laugh! I wont be able to keep a straight face on for a while…. just promise that if you ever meet me in the person – don’t say “kind regards, Sue – Koorong Customer Service” I wont be responsible for not taking rest breaks with my hysterical laughing!


Sigh.

oh 😳


Nevertheless I think she ought to know about this and how it affects us and mostly that depression is a real thing with youth…. they don’t really need negative books that are so out of touch with reality.


Hmmm
