How do I help a homosexual teen being forced into “treatment”?
Question by Jen: How do I help a homosexual teen being forced into “treatment”?
My son’s 15 year old freind recently came out and told us he was homosexual. This young man has been my son’s best freind since he they were 6 and he is considered part of our family. Although we were shocked, we all support him. His devout Christian parents found out about his sexuality and have since been determined to “fix” him. My family tried our best to help him but his parents put him in a Christian facility to be “cured”. He is not allowed contact with anyone who “encourages his sinfulness” and we havn’t talked to him in weeks. His parents refuse to communicate with any of us. We are in a panic and cannot find help from anyone. Is there any way we can legaly remove him from this place and bring him home? Please, any suggestions! Thank you!

I like finding home remedies for everything. I enjoy making my own cleaning products, solving problems and improving things through natural home remedies. I review home remedies as I find them and the Top Home Remedy List changes often as more reviews are added!
If you have a home remedy tip - share it! 










A .38 in the back of the head would be the humane option.
beat the homosexuality out of him. tell him what gay people in wheel chairs are ROLL-AIDS give him a barstool and say sit like a normal person.
That’s disgusting beyond measure. Are you reading this christians, do you see why we hate the things your religion does to people??
Have you called social services? Do it now!
that makes me sick. unfortunately i’m not sure there’s anything you can do. i think it’s a form of child abuse. maybe give cps a call. it’s worth a shot. what those ‘parents’ are doing is disgusting.
I don’t think so, unless you get a lawyer and the kid emancipates himself. If he can live with you he probably has a good chance.
Hire him a lawyer and get him out.
Ahhhh, feel the christian love on this thread. We don’t even have to look to the OP to see the bigotry.
at this point the only thing that is going to help this boy after what his parents are putting him through is enough therapy to make him realize there is nothing wrong with him.
I always though forced sterilization was wrong but if people like this are allowed to have kids then i need to reconsider.
He’s their son, let them do it, nothing wrong with what they are doing, homosexuality is a sin, so is lying, so is murder, so is rape, etc… what you are saying is that you want him to continue in this, would you want him to continue to be a murderer too, if he confessed he killed somebody and wanted to kill others?, I hope not, but from what you’ve said here, sounds like you would.
You had better pray that your sons friend didnt convert your own son!

Therefore, God handed them over to degrading passions. Their females exchanged natural relations for unnatural,
27
and the males likewise gave up natural relations with females and burned with lust for one another. Males did shameful things with males and thus received in their own persons the due penalty for their perversity.
28
And since they did not see fit to acknowledge God, God handed them over to their undiscerning mind to do what is improper.
29
They are filled with every form of wickedness, evil, greed, and malice; full of envy, murder, rivalry, treachery, and spite. They are gossips
30
and scandalmongers and they hate God. They are insolent, haughty, boastful, ingenious in their wickedness, and rebellious toward their parents.
31
They are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.
32
Although they know the just decree of God that all who practice such things deserve death, they not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.
God have mercy on us!
Report them for child abuse and the ” doctor ” as well . You can also try the ACLU and see if they can force the local authorities to take action against brainwashing . If they are using someone who is sanctioned by the state with a professions licence he will have it removed and if not that person can be prosecuted for practicing without a licence .
He cant be gay at 15 hes not old enough to know hes gay (legally speaking). These are easily my favorite troll questions, the faux emotional story from the unknown Y!answers participant.
Honestly you should alert the proper authorities to the goings-on at the “facility” where he’s being kept. There was another one called “Refuge” and it was shut down because it was found by the Tennessee Department of Mental Health to have been operating two “unlicensed mental health supportive living facilities”. It might turn out the same way in the “facility” where this friend is being kept. Perhaps a relevant state department could investigate.
Also, you might want to get the parents in touch with “Evangelicals Concerned”, an organization which encourages and affirms lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered Christians in their faith.

There is no legal way nor should there be. You should want him to get the help if you really care about him. The Word of G-d says that a homosexual will not enter the kingdom of G-d. As individuals who care about him you shouldn’t want him to live a lifestyle that will ultimately send him to hell.
call an attorney and find aliberal judge, and fight for custody.
My suggestion, although I know it will get slammed, is to mind your own business and let other people raise their own children. How they raise them and the decisions they make regarding treatment for anything is none of your business. Good grief, raise your own child and leave them alone.
All these suggestions to call the nanny government and report them are what’s ridiculous. You folks need to get a life.
Go ahead and give me thumbs down. But this issue just proves I’ve been right all along. You folks have been telling Christians to keep their faith in their home for how long now? This family is doing that and that’s not good enough for you either. You want to send your government goons into their home and demand they raise their children according to your anti-Christian standards. And then you wonder why we say you people would be much happier living in China?
Call the ACLU. I’m sure you can find some way to communicate with him. This is so sad. His parents should be put in a asylum. Can you find out the place where he is? You can complain to social services and the police and maybe they will investigate and that might be enough to scare the parents. This kind of thing is really hard because these nutjobs are protected by the law.
Pray for him. That is really all you can do.
You should really pray for your son’s friend and his family.
It’s got to be a hard issue to deal with, when your child turns his back on God and His commandments. We can only have faith that their son will come back to the Lord and the way he was raised. Pray that while he is in the Christian facility he will get the closer relationship with God that He needs. Pray that he will accept the Father’s love that he so desperately needs and is feeling that he is missing.
It makes me sick to hear about people doing this to their own son. You’re absolutely right in your concerns. I’d try to contact the correct authorities and make sure he doesn’t get brainwashed, which will cause him even more problems.
I see alot of christians on here, think it’s fine. IT IS NOT! And it’s child abuse!
This is one of the reasons Atheists frown at religion.
As much as you want to, there’s nothing you can do. His parents are not hurting him in any way and can do as they wish. It is not your right, even though you may feel he is family, to do anything like that. He’s going to have to wait until he is an adult to do what he wants. Unless you can find that they are leaving bruises and scars, you can do anything and you shouldn’t regardless how you feel.
Stay out of it…thats the best YOU can do for him
And his parents are being that , parents .
The only thing you could do is call social services and attempt to have his parent’s custody revoked.
God bless you for wanting to help.
