Hiding such a crucial part of your being is so consuming & exhausting. We saw our son blossom into an amazing young man once he shed that burdensome secret. It was on that day that we finally got to meet the son we didn't know and it was glorious.
I seethe NOT because my son is gay. I seethe because he lives in a country in which some elected officials find it politically advantageous to deny him dignity, basic rights, and protections. I seethe because there are people who preach hatred and discrimination towards gays yet claim to be "good" and "loving" Christians. I seethe because there are groups who claim to be "advocates" for the family but who work to do great harm to any family that doesn’t fit their narrow template for “normal”.
