i was realy surprised when the one mom (who has the new mom with her) made a comment about never having encountered someone with such negative feelings regarding her lifestyle choice. i mean, it's great that she never has, but it makes me wonder how insulated she/her partner and the 2 kids are-and weather they've ever discussed with their kids (or plan to when they get older) that there unfortunatly are people who are very vocaly against gay relationships. the 'wives' did say that their kids have had to 'come out' about their parent's lifestyle at school and in social situations by virtue of the obvious fact that it's 2 moms raising them-but unless the kids are in some type of realy great and supportive private school, i can't imagine (esp. with the boy) that noones encountered some nasty, negative situations (unless the boy is not telling the moms to spare their feelings).
personaly i think this mom ranks way below the 'god warrior' (in her first run-second run she did very well esp. given the circumstances of the new husband)-the 'god warrior' was ignorant and nutty enough that the average person encountering her would ignore her rantings. this new wife comes off far to normal on the surface, and i could see her easily interacting with others and spreading her hatefull beliefs (i'de love to be a fly on the wall and see how embraced she is by her community when she returns-i can't imagine the majority share her racist/homophobic attitude-and i can't imagine she will be warmly welcomed by those who don't. and if the dad's coaching any teams in the area, that display of lack of concern for his own child's safety and wellbeing would cause the average parent to call into question the appropriatness of his supervising other kids.
