[quote=Anonymous]There’s an organization to help parents and loved ones of LGBTQ kids: pflag.org. They’ll have resources to help you navigate this period with your family relationships intact. In the meantime, you’ll need to have the same conversations you would if he were straight, about consent, respect within relationships, safe sex, etc. There may also be a club at his school that can help him navigate the social situation. It’s possible his preferences and identity may evolve as he gets older, but it’s important to respect that this is how he feels right now. It doesn’t have to be a big dramatic deal, just acknowledge it, thank him for being candid with you, and continue treating him as the good kid he already is. Who he’s attracted to doesn’t change that. [/quote]
