Are you a parent of an adult child who recently disclosed their same-sex attraction?

This is for you!

You are probably in some stage of shock and have no idea how to respond to your child. You don’t want to under-react, overreact or panic!

I am going to give you my four most critical issues you need to respond to in order to respond EFFECTIVELY rather than reactively. Reacting is the normal response, but not effective in helping your child.

These four issues come from my fifteen years of working with parents as a therapist. I am calling them the “Big 4”. The Big 4 are issues every parent will respond to inevitability. After you absorb this content you will have the tools you need to respond well and create a foundation for change in your child.

Let’s get into the Big 4…

Your child’s same-sex attraction or transsexualism has been disclosed to you, the parent, and you are in shock, on edge. You never expected such a thing could happen in your family.

You have no knowledge of the gender subject other than what you see in the news. What are you going to do? How will you respond to your child?

Consider asking yourself these THREE CRITICAL QUESTIONS that will make a difference in your child’s future.

There are numerous known causes of homosexuality and one is sexual molestation and sexual abuse. This violation has not been found to cause same-sex attraction exclusively but in combination with other factors. Typically, the sexual abuse occurs within the first ten years of life. Because this occurs so early in life, an adult can feel pretty normal and yet be operating out of this trauma wound in life.

The abused adult has programmed in them that connection with another person will occur sexually. They don’t think this in their thoughts; rather it is programmed into their unconscious emotions. When loneliness, boredom or emptiness presents itself then sexual contact becomes the antidote to these feelings. This is why so many homosexual men believe they were born homosexual. As an adult, they have had same-sex attraction for so long they cannot imagine feeling anything different toward men. This is what is expected given these men have been sexually violated as a boy.
