A while back there was a thread on this boy. Personally I have mixed feelings not by how his parents are handling it but whether he is actually gay. Lots of young boys have a crush on a sports star, actor or singer and that does not mean they're gay. I don't think a 7 y/o can much such a pronouncement.
February 21, 201214 yr I think the parents did the right thing regardless of his age. And he may or may not be gay but knowing that your parents support you no matter what is the way it should be (as long as what they are supporting is not illegal of course).
February 21, 201214 yr Oops I posted it again by accident please delete this one for me. Many thanks in advance.
February 21, 201214 yr Well he is only seven and his parents are very irrational in my opinion. For instance, the interpretation of the boy's face expression can be very subjective but they interpret it in only one way. After all he is only seven. I am glad that the kid's parents are open minded in one topic but forcing their interpretations on a seven year old kid and going along with is harmful as well. It's embarrassing to admit but I wanted to be a wonder woman when I was that age and I did wonder woman transformation move but never changed into a beautiful lady. As soon as I realized that nothing happened I went out play with my brothers. The kid doesn't know marriage and responsibilities that come with it. Explaining gay and marriage in such a distorted way is also a bad thing. Let the kid decide as he gets older and wise and nuture in him the ability to think for himself.
