... My parents are looking into Christian schools in the area to send my brother to in the hopes of making him not gay. They've had meetings with his councilor at school which Matt has told me all about

That sucks. >< How old is your brother?

[kiriana]

He's 14. My parents are in denial that gay people actually exist and they seem to think he'll either 'grow out of it' or decide he's not gay after all.

>< Your parents sound like they need to pull their heads out of their asses. And you know, really, if he's really, truly gay, no school they can send him to will change it. Suppress, maybe, but not change. :\

We've been trying to talk to them into changing their minds about it. It's like steadily chipping at the great wall.

Your brother needs to like. Run away. Right now.

[kiriana]

At least he has me to talk to at home. And none of my sisters care if he is or not.

[toastofrassilon]

That's definitely a good thing, but your parents are crazy. :/

Your parents are...wtf??

Don't they know that the "not gay" orgs are run by gay men in denial? Two of the founders of Exodus International ended up falling in love, denouncing the anti-gay movement, and leaving to start a family.

Not to mention the founder of that Family Values council that was touring Europe with a male prostitute.
