I remembered when I was working as a security guard, I overheard a conversation among my fellow colleagues who mentioned about family rules to dating. The problem of teenage homosexuality is brought up, and they said that its just one of the many possible symptoms of teenage rebellion, and most will outgrow it soon.
One particular part of the conversation that strikingly burnt into my memory, however, was the mention that male teenage homosexuality could be a long-term issue. For girls pretending to be lesbians it was supposedly easier, my friends all said just give a bit of time, be it family attention or some counselling, or at last resort some physical or verbal lashing, they will eventually learn to like men. However for male teenagers engaging in homosexuality there is a distinct possibility they may not outgrow it and become authentic homosexuals.
Gay conversion therapy centers from my understanding doesn't seem to be a good solution from what I heard (Not sure why though), besides it doesn't exist in the country I lived.
So how should a family handle homosexual behavior from their child?
