If someone reacted to the fact that you are a rainbow family celebrating Christmas on television, what would you say to them?
– Yeah, we can’t really do anything about it. If they have such notions about life and people, it is very difficult to influence them, he says.
– But Junior and I rarely get such a good comment from anywhere about our disposition. We are probably so harmless that people don’t care I think.
Junior: “Safe in my life”
For Junior, it is important that everyone accepts each other for who they are.
– You only live once and then you should be able to choose your own path. I have confidence in my life and in myself and I don’t care what other people think. I do not take their opinions into account. Because sometimes you criticize others for not feeling good about yourself. We have to help them in some way to understand, we must try to give them joy, he says.
