Well, you can either accept your son is gay, or you can push him away from a partner whom you consider as being not all that bad because you're ashamed of their sexual preferences.
Guess which track will eventually cause your relationship with your own son to vaporise?
When your son starts pushing you out of his life for punishing him this way, which can definitely happen, as sad as it is, don't be surprised. Instead, look back at this, read up on homosexuality and its ill effects on the average family lifestyle (hint: there are none), grow a little more enlightened and accepting, and try to encourage him instead of repressing his feelings...
...ah, who am I kidding, (s)he'll never read this, anyway. Wonder how long his/her son'll tolerate this.
You've taken the first step: you're being honest with yourself.
Now be honest with your son and with the rest of the world, or you're going to lose your son. What will your shame be worth then?
You're pathetic, any parent that would be ashamed of their child because they were gay, straight, bi, asexual or whatever else is pathetic.
Well, hopefully this is the first step towards you getting the fuck over your irrational bigotry and supporting your child. There's at least some self-awareness here. You still have a chance. Please, work on your issues so that you can continue to have a relationship with your kid. You're already part way there.
The first step is admitting that you have a problem. Hopefully, you'll soon figure out that your son's preference doesn't lessen him in any way, & that you are the one with the issues, not him. But I doubt it. People like you are notoriously slow learners.
Confused?
