[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 649562, member: 18516"] Hi Heavy Heart, welcome to the forum. I'm sorry you are feeling scared but I understand. It sounds to me like your son is dealing with an identity crisis. How awful for him to endure the cruelty of the other students. If he really is gay then I'm sure that is a huge part of what's going on with him. Bless you for not turning your back on him because of that possibility. Being that he's a twin he might be comparing himself to his brother. I think it would be great if you could get him into some counseling or some type of support group. He's only 20 and hasn't really gotten into to much trouble so I think there's hope for him getting things straightened out. You are showing him you are there for him and that you love him. Ultimately it's up to him to do the work and make the changes. You are doing all you can for him and that counts, you will know in your heart no matter the outcome that you have done all you could. Also, don't blame yourself for any of this. It's nothing you did or didn't do, it just is. I pray that you, your son and family will be able to find some peace and work through this. I'm glad you are here. Please let us know how things are going. ((HUGS)) to you.......... [/QUOTE]
