For the past year my son didn’t talk to me. I didn’t do anything… there wasn’t some major event. We were exceptionally close up to that point but nevertheless it happened. I was devastated. I felt as if he had died. I tried everything I could think of. I finally did some research online and discovered it was sort of an epidemic happening across the nation but no one talked about it because they were too ashamed. Every case is different….often they involve kids of divorce.
My son had started talking to his father. The one that took off when he was 2 and never looked back. Well, as they communicated, father decided talking to mom wasn’t a good idea and if son wanted to come live with him he would have to cut off communications. You can see where this was leading right? So my naive, desperate for a dad, son dropped everything, left everything behind and went to live with his father. He lasted less than 2 months.
Sadly he found out that everything I had ever said was true including that his father was a racist and a homophobe. When he heard my son was bisexual he didn’t even let him sleep there that night, he dumped him off at a motel in a big city, bought him a plane ticket, and sent him back to AZ. He didn’t let him pack…and is making him pay to ship his stuff home.
It saddens me that my son had to be hurt so badly because people still can’t free their minds and open their hearts. He was taught to never judge anyone. I think Stand 4 Love is a brilliant idea and if you would like more information please please check out their website here!

==========================================================
My Life has not been a fairy tale and I wish I could tell you that everyone has been accepting of who I am. It has been very difficult growing up gay in a small community with a deeply religious family. I have always known I’m different for as long as I can remember, even at 5 years old. I knew right away that it was something I needed to hide because while I was growing up, I’ve been taught that homosexuality is a sin and I should be ashamed and punished for who I am. At 12 years old, I tried to kill myself but was unsuccessful. I was alone, helpless and hopeless during my teen years until I met a friend who taught me that who I am is okay. At 16, my parents found out that I’m gay. They forced me to be committed in a mental institution for “shock” treatments to “cure” my gayness. I refused. They gave me a choice…SHOCK THERAPY or MOVE OUT. I remember that night very well. It was raining and cold. I grabbed several of my clothes in a garbage bag and head out on my own. The last thing I heard from my parents that night was “From now on, you are dead to us. It would have been better if you have cancer than being gay.” I remembered taking the train not knowing where to go, crying my eyes out. I don’t know how I survived but somehow someway I did. I worked two full time jobs nonstop back to back to put myself through school. Now, I own my own home and I’ve made my own “family” who loves me for who I am.
Sincerely,
RicoRacer Flux
