Gay teenager sent to re-education camp

[pika2000]

Well, I just found this on another forum and it's actually making me totally mad, sad and upset.
It's a blog of a teenager, who has been sent to re-education camp after he told his parents that he is gay.

It's unbelieveable how parents can treat their kids so respectlessly and I still can't believe these f*cking camps do really exist.

I know. I think, that parents should accept that their child isn't straight like they are. It's the child choice, not theirs.
However, that's the world for you. There are people out there that hate gays and lesbians. They want them straight instead. There's nothing we can really do about it. How can anyone change that many people in the world?

Now, my oppinion, the parents made a bad call. In these cases, its hard for a child to come out to people like this, due to the fear of being rejected, and for your parents(the people whom you love and trust) to do this to you, has got to truly hurt. I hope that the poor kid doesn't make any bad choices or end up hurt because of the parents decision. Poor guy is so depressed :(

Edit: Whoah! That place is 'The Camp from Hell!' o_O

Sorry, Sammi-san, but it's not the child's choice. It's never the child's choice.
it's just something you discover about yourself. I found that pretty offensive, dude.

Like, I'm effeminate(I do girly things, but am not gay), but that was not really a choice as such...It's just who I am, and I don't care what people say.

It's even worse with being gay, because it's because of biochemical hormones, and pheremones, and other stuff, and discovering you're gay is awful. The only thing the child really gets a choice about is whether to come out of the closet or live a lie.
And, if they do tell, then they will be hated by the public, christians and jews,
(Although I'm a christian and I accept homosexuality.)
possibly their family, possibly their friends, possibly their teachers, even police and such.

It's ridiculous. I also think it's revolting beyond comprehension when bullies pretend to 'act' gay towards people, this includes sexual suggestions, unwanted touching, to the same sex, also trying to convince us all that homosexuals are all perverted molesters, which is just a stupid stereotype, and really it's disgusting when guys at school say stuff like: 'I love you. I wanna have anal sex with you' when I'm the same gender as them, and yes, I'd be disturbed if a girl said that to me too.

But, what's most disturbing is that these guys that say this stuff are bullies who say other mean stuff too, so of course I'm going to be ****ed off and disbelieving by them offering anal sex.

It's stupid. Worse still, the bullies doing this are most different from homosexuals because they usually have the choice to say these awkward things to me, while homosexuals don't really get a choice whether or not they're gay.

Wow that must have been really depressing to him, you could tell in his writing. I don't know what kind of parents would send their kid to re-education camp. It's like they don't have any respect for something their child can't control. Anyways what parents? They don't deserve to be called parents at all.
