7 year old announces he is gay, mother believes him

From here:

Considering that my son has a longstanding crush on Glee‘s Blaine and regularly refers to him as “my boyfriend,” I thought there was a fair chance that he would someday say, “I’m gay.” But my kid is only 7 years old. I figured I had a few years before we crossed that threshold (if we ever did), probably when he was 14 or 15. I never thought it would happen this soon.

It’s amazing, but it’s also shocking. How many people have a 7-year-old come out to them? A lot of people don’t know how to react, and I don’t blame them. Before my son, I’d never met a child who came out this young — and we don’t know anyone else who has. The mere idea of children having a sexual orientation makes people uncomfortable. It’s something we don’t think about (or just don’t like to).

Yes, it is shocking: why would a mother allow her 7 year old to watch Glee and why would it amaze her that junior has been influenced by Glee’s glamorisation of homosexuality?

  1. Münchausen syndrome by proxy is a label for a pattern of behavior in which a caregiver deliberately exaggerates, fabricates, and/or induces physical, psychological, behavioral, and/or mental health problems in those who are in their care.[1] With deception at its core, this behavior is an elusive, potentially lethal, and frequently misunderstood form of child abuse[2] or medical neglect[3] that has been difficult to define, detect and confirm.
    The mom needs help as she is using her child to promote an agenda for huffington post,of which she blogs for, of which censors every legitimate counterpoint I have posted that displays the mom in a negative manner and promotes child abuse IMO.of a 7yo watching adult material that he mimics.
