Nah, "acceptance" implies an informed, deliberate decision. That's not really the norm to my experience.

You know, maybe you're right. Apathy is lack of decision; not that acceptance always is deliberate - you do, after all, accept your child for what they are without thinking about it - but apathy is definitely more applicable to the situation.
