Parents: Please don’t let your children go through this

Parents: watch this video. If you have a gay child or suspect you have a gay child, please don’t let them come to this.

You have to tell them clearly that it doesn’t matter if they’re gay, they’ll be loved exactly the same. Otherwise they have no one to turn to when they hear mean things about them or being called names. Jonah may not be gay. But what if he is? What about those gay kids out there?

Don’t wait for your children to come to you to tell you they are gay. They are probably afraid that you won’t accept them. Say it. Clearly to them. You will love them just the same. Straight or gay. So they don’t have to go through what Jonah has to.
It broke my heart watching this video.

If after watching this video, you’re thinking about how to face your relatives that your son or girl is gay, then you forgot to put your children’s needs before your own pride.

If you are can’t play it on your iOS devices or Android, try this MP4 direct link: WATCH VIDEO HERE (if you don’t have Flash)

Here’s a link to Jonah’s response to his video yesterday.
