S1: Bob writes Gary, my son has recently told us that

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,520
S1: he's gay. I'm having a very hard time dealing with it.

3
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:09,320
S2: Any parent tends to be disappointed when they hear that

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,840
S2: one of their children indicates to them that they are gay.

5
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:15,000
S2: Men and women are made for each other. It is

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,720
S2: God's design, and anything other than that is outside that

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,000

8
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,040

9
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,120
S2: I am saying is this we love our children no

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,560
S2: matter what. And I would say you express your disappointment,

11
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,320
S2: your lack of understanding of how this could be. But

12
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,200
S2: you say to them, I want you to know I

13
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,400
S2: love you and I will go on loving you. I

14
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,800
S2: would ask that you do some serious reading, or that

15
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,080
S2: you go talk with a counselor about this and try

16
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,200
S2: to understand yourself better. But I want you to know

17
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,839
S2: I love you no matter what. That's the approach I

18
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,040
