From those great folks at Focus on the Family, we find another brilliant lesson for life. Dr. James Dobson and his followers have secondary sight called "Focus On Your Child". They address the concerns and early warning signs for prehomosexual behavior in your children. Here is an excerpt from that sight:
Helping Boys Become Men, and Girls Become Women Is My Child Becoming Homosexual? Before puberty, children aren’t normally heterosexual or homosexual. They’re definitely gender conscious. But young children are not sexual beings yet — unless something sexual in nature has interrupted their developmental phases. Still, it’s not uncommon for children to experience gender confusion during the elementary school years. Dr. Joseph Nicolosi reports, “In one study of 60 effeminate boys ages 4 to 11, 98 percent of them engaged in cross-dressing, and 83 percent said they wished they had been born a girl.” Evidences of gender confusion or doubt in boys ages 5 to 11 may include: 1. A strong feeling that they are “different” from other boys. 2. A tendency to cry easily, be less athletic, and dislike the roughhousing that other boys enjoy. 3. A persistent preference to play female roles in make-believe play. 4. A strong preference to spend time in the company of girls and participate in their games and other pastimes. 5. A susceptibility to be bullied by other boys, who may tease them unmercifully and call them “queer,” “fag” and “gay.” 6. A tendency to walk, talk, dress and even “think” effeminately. 7. A repeatedly stated desire to be — or insistence that he is — a girl. If your child is experiencing several signs of gender confusion, professional help is available. It’s best to seek that help before your child reaches puberty. “By the time the adolescent hormones kick in during early adolescence, a full-blown gender identity crisis threatens to overwhelm the teenager,” warns psychologist Dr. James Dobson. To compound the problem, many of these teens experience “great waves of guilt accompanied by secret fears of divine retribution.” If your child has already reached puberty, change is difficult, but it’s not too late. Response OK. This is absolutely maddening. I'm not absolutely convinced homesexuality is entirely conscious choice anyway but it's just one more opportunity for the evangelicals to try and control and brainwash our children and the masses. It's inane. I firmly believe in freedom of speech but sometimes I just wish people would shut up. posted by Stithmeister @ 1:26 PM 0 Comments: Post a Comment << Home |
