RE: Partners Staying the Night

I agree with Tracee.
My son told me about six years ago, that he was gay. But I told him after the
total shock, that there would be no affection in my sight.
He knew growing up, as all my children did, that sleeping with a
boyfriend/girlfriend was out of the question in our home.
But sometimes a child will do things just to make you mad at them, just to blame
you for it all.
They are not mature enough yet to understand that when they hurt you, they also
hurt themselves and others.
But being the mother I am, I stand my ground and let them know I love them no
matter what. But I will not put up with them disrespecting me or their daddy.
The gay one may never understand how it really feels since he chooses never to
be with a woman and have children of his own.Their own children usually show
them how hard it was for us.
But somehow, God will show them what is right. They may never tell you, but
they know.
Stand your ground and tell him and his partner the rules again. I'm finding out
even in the gay community, there are many breakups. So he may not be with this
partner long, and change to another one.
You keep on clucking at your son, and keep making him understand you also have
rights, especially in your home. And keep praying, as I will also. And God will
walk with you every step of the way.
I have never, nor will I ever, get over the idea that my son is gay. But, as
time has gone on, I don't think about it as much. I just face it again when I
see him and his partner, if he brings him.
I will always love my son no matter what.
And if he does a sex change ever, I will still call him my son, and call him by
the name I chose to name him.
When a child rejects the name you gave to them out of love, and changes it, that
to me is disrespecting me as a person and a mother.
So we are here for you; I know I was late at responding, but, I am here.
Hugs to you, and remember when you look at nature, you see God. So find things
of beauty and find the smile God gave you. Dance a song in your heart and let
your spirit feel freedom of being in God's arms.
Love in Jesus,
Angel

It might just be me, but I think if my child had sex in my bed, that would really upset me. And to do it after he was told "NO COMPANY" is even worse. Your son...
