No snark--totally curious.

I simply like to at least try to understand where people are coming from before I condemn their actions.
This is their son that died. I think there's at least a reasonable chance that they are reacting out of grief, anger and all kinds of emotion that most of us can't understand.
I'm not saying they're right. I am literally trying to see all sides. The fact that Nikki is trans doesn't make her automatically right any more than it makes her automatically wrong. Relationships are complicated. Family dynamics are complicated. Greed is common. People tend to put their own blood family first (i.e. wanting everything for their grandkids instead of the "new wife'). This stuff happens. It doesn't make it right.
I am just bothered by the leap to judgment in either direction without getting as many facts as possible and trying to see all sides.
And, no I didn't read your reply as snark...and mine isn't either.
