We hope to guide you in this journey of accepting and understanding your son when you learn he is gay.-Did I do something wrong? -Is it normal? -Doesn't God say it's wrong? -Will he be different? -I am uncomfortable with the thought of him being with another man.

Isn't this unfair?If you have just found out that your son is gay, or if you think he might be, you might find it overwhelming and have lots of questions. You might wonder what made him this way, or wonder what it means for his life. You could be feeling afraid, heartbroken or disappointed. Maybe you're hoping that this is just a phase that he will grow out of. You might even feel like you don't know who he is anymore and wonder if there is any way to truly accept him. As a gay couple, our parents have been there too. We also struggled with coming out to our parents, and they struggled to understand and accept us. That is why we decided to write this book. We both grew up in families that are very religious. Being gay was seen as taboo. When we realized that we were gay, we both went through a phase of self-loathing and tried to change who we are. When we told our parents, they were angry and confused. They couldn't reconcile what they believed in about gay people with the fact that their own sons were gay. We can offer you the kind of help that our families lacked, based on our knowledge, research, and personal experience. In the book, we offer all of the information that you need about what being gay means, and just as importantly, what it does not . We give you clear, direct, and no-nonsense answers to the questions you might still have, such as:- Is homosexuality a choice? - Is there a way to change him? - Whose fault is it that my son is gay? - What about what God says? - W
