Damn, that's a sad story!
Tik Tok, Liberal Colleges, Social Media, Entertainment Industry, etc just push this shit on our kids.
You are right, but still, I can't imagine how bad that has to be for the parents! That might sound harsh, but as far as I am concerned, Ted's daughter decided to leave the family. Hence I wouldn't consider her to be family any more as well, if she were my daughter.
