Oh, interesting. I have thought before that I wish my T could have come with me for at least part of some family functions, in part as support, and in part to see that what I'm saying about my family (my parents mainly) isn't just in my head. Though I know he couldn't actually do that. Or maybe just, say, sit a table or two away from us at a family dinner in a restaurant and observe.
I think it would depend on what the event was and what my T would be doing, I think?
