BEFORE COMMENTING READ THISABOUT ABE!! Abe posted his origal vio on July 7, 2009. This box last updated Feb 2013 KIDS: I don't know Abe and nnot put you touch wh him; if you are lookg to meet other kids there is a se that is pretty safe, lled the Queer Youth Communy, Open to 13-21 but the foms are open to kids as young as 11. But wh ANY se please e re! DON"T BOTHER POSTING IF YOU WANT TO SAY: - Gay is sful - Gay is a choice - He is sick - ‘faggot’ or siar ments - He is too young to know he is gay - Make ments not appropriate to a chld of 12 ======== FOR EVERYONE: Frequently Anticipated Qutns: How n I ntact him? – Origally on YouTube he is no longer there. I nnot lk you to him, ntact him, etc. I never had any DIRECT ntact wh him but he has given permissn for this to appear by passg a msage through a third party. He fely do not want people to ntact him. Please accept the gift of this vio om him and leave him be. If I gave his ntact the poor guy would have 50,000 people msagg him at least. Oh and I am pretty sure he says "I jt like the avert to the girls." I thk he means "avert" [uh-vurt] verb (ed wh object) to turn away or anyway... a·vert asi: to avert one's ey. In this vio Abe is a cute kid, if you want to say that you n. Abe might seem sexy to you, but if you go beyond a general nocuo ment of that type I'm likely to block you. I make no judgments, if he's your cup of tea, if you'd like to sweep him off his feet, marry him, whatever, I don't re but DO NOT post your feelgs here!! Now if you are 11 or 12 and want to say he's hot, I n live wh that. I do not have that kd of channel and I don't want to have that kd of channel. I rpect gay kids and teens, and for that matter, men, women, and straight youth. Abe do not portray himself a sexualized way, and you should not e this blog to treat him as a sexualized adult/adolcent. Are we clear? Are we crystal clear? Is he really gay? --DId you watch?? Of COURSE he is! Y he STILL is. Isn't this jt a phase he's gog th? No. En Oh. He lik guys always he wanted to have a bf 4th gra. Would you ask that of a 12 yo boy who said he lik girls? NO, EN OH, NO! Oh his brac are off now * gay boy 11yo *
But as much as I thought was adorable, I also dread moments like the, bee as the father of a gay child, the only thg that really worri me is other people's potential reactns to him: Will he say or do the wrong thg to the wrong person? He will be enterg the highly macho world of high school soon enough, and that is not always a safe place for gay kids to be. But luckily, I didn't have to worry what this high-school boy might thk, sce I know that my -laws and niec have a "no homophob allowed" policy when to their iends.
YOUR CHILD JT TOLD YOU HE'S GAY. NOW WHAT?

For my son, unlike how 's been for so many who have e before him, beg gay is not somethg to al wh but somethg that is, like his beg tall or havg giant feet. He don't thk of his "gay issu"; he jt knows what he lik, and now he is actg on . Too many gay kids n't act on their feelgs until they move away om home and to real life, or at least to llege.
For straight parents, havg a child reveal that he is gay n be a jolt.
You might ask how long he or she has known, and why he feels he is gay, bi, or trans, suggts Jonathan Tobk, M. D., a psychiatrist private practice New York Cy and the -thor of When Your Child Is Gay: What You Need to Know. You n fd one through the Associatn of Gay and Lbian Psychiatrists.
