[ Kurt's tone becomes more serious as he speaks; this is a subject he feels strongly about, given how often it's touched the people he loves. ] He deserves a chance to make his own way in the world, and to find out who he is.

[ He pauses briefly over his breakfast, studying Varian for a moment. ]

I believe that's something you both have in common.
