Fantastic mother. Absolutely wonderful.
How to change a son that is wondering into Psychosis? That's a difficult one, but it's something he, himself, has to decide to do. If she tries to force Anti-Gay rhetoric down the boys throat, he could, definately, have some psychological trauma. As a mother, she should be patient and accepting of him. She should also try to find a therapist to do psychotherapy to reduce the boys homosexual desires.
It is *not* impossible to fix this problem if the mother and the boy both accept treatment and want change to occur.
Keep the following in mind:
"Even before reaching puberty , a child who later becomes homosexual shows characterological traits of being differently constituted than other children, who when grown up will have heterosexual feelings: that is, a girlish appearance in the boy and a boyish appearance in the girl."
(Hirschfeld)
"Even if at first they entered the homosexual coteries with reluctance and purely as a defense against outside pressures, so many of them have perforce had to make this adjustment that to expect them to abandon their whole way of life at this stage of their careers would be demanding the impossible."
(Westood)
"The homosexual does derive sex satisfaction from relation with males; he can easily get sex partners; he is prejudiced in favor of males; and he often has built an entire life around his homosexuality. Under the circumstances, he is just as likely to want to change his pattern of living and to become exclusively heterosexual as the successful criminal is to want to get a relatively low paying job and to work honestly for the rest of his life."
(Albert Eillis)
"... I have seen several cases in which men and women in their thirties and forties simply forced themselves to forego all homosexual contacts and propelled themselves into heterosexual relations, and within a year or two of so doing, these individuals had become largely or exclusively heterosexual in their desires and activities. I have even seen one instance in which a male homosexual and a lesbian deliberately married each other for reasons of convenience, but when they began experimenting sexually... they eventually learned to like heterosexual more than homosexual rlations."
(Albert Ellis)
"... actual case studies and statistical reports on homosexuals who have been successfully treated in individual treatment and by group therapy methods have been reported in the scientific literature by a great number of therapists."
(Albert Ellis)
