I can not emphasize too strongly how influential a father is to his son. This is particularly true during a sons vulnerable and impressionable childhood years. A boy learns how to act by imitating his father and a sons need for his fathers support and approve is extremely powerful.
The Huffington Post and the commentators reflect the new politically correct parenting which is being promoted by liberals , the entertainment industry and the MSM. A good father today is said to no longer be someone who protects and encourages his son. He is no longer someone who gives his children values to live by and expects and demands certain behaviors. He is no longer someone who teaches and encourages his son to live his life by a moral code.
The father in this case is encouraging his young and impressionable very shy son to be a homosexual and to try to reach out to very pretty teenage boys. Within a few years the father will be encouraging his son to have sex with these very pretty boys. Whether the son will be able to resist no one knows but it is extremely difficult for a young boy to go against his father.
The sick and terrifying thing is the commentators all think this is great. They think a father's role should be to encourage his young son to be a sex object for older homosexuals. This is part of the problem that is poisoning America today. I heard a teacher say that impressionable and sensitive young boys in school were encouraged to accept homosexuality by various programs sponsored by adults. The sad thing is she was threatened not to tell these boys that homosexuality is wrong and unhealthy. That is supposedly homophobic. Homophobic is a word made up by the homosexual activists to characterize anyone who speaks out about the harm that they are doing.
Homosexuality is NOT new. It is not innovative or modern or evidence of societal progress. It is as old as Sodom and Gomorrah.
I will close with some relevant quotes:
It would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck and he were cast into the sea than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin. Luke 17:2
Whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a great millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.Mark 9:42
But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.Matthew 18:6
I do agree that this boy is being pressured by those closest to him, and in my view, he is being robbed of a childhood. There seems to be some emotional reward in being the parent of the gay or transgender child, and it is obvious that parents like this one are eager to gain attention on that basis. This is one of the worst examples - it really has a purient tone.
