13-Year Old Son Comes Out to Dad

Issues Entry Feed Trackback

Here’s a ‘thank you’ note from one of our podcast listeners… nakakataba ng puso. He relates how his friend dealt with a 13-year-old son who comes out to him. Thank you for sharing this little note of appreciation. I am sure my fellow fabcasters are all in awe with your friend’s words: “mas napamahal sa akin ngayon ang aking anak at mas naiintindihan ko ang mga nasa loob niya.” Honestly, I feel like crying. Pramis.

dear migs of mgg,

it’s a bit out-of-whack of me to say this considering it’s super-late, but it is only recently that i got to listen to your podcasts re: coming out (part 1, part 2, part 3).

i sent the podcast files to a close male friend of mine and he listened to all of them. you see, he’s a father with a 13-year old son who he suspected was gay and he has seen being very much troubled. (the boy just came out to his father this morning. and my friend, the father, didn’t go to work to spend the day with his son.)

the conversations between mcvie, gibbs cadiz, rj boy and you were pretty much an eye-opener for him. my friend and i talked extensively about these issues right after he listened to it. your podcast afforded him a first row seat into the minds and thinkings of intelligent, well-rounded gay men.

i salute you for the effort you’ve done. through your podcast, you have pretty much affected in a very positive manner the relationship between a heterosexual father and his gay son. to quote him, “mas napamahal sa akin ngayon ang aking anak at mas naiintindihan ko ang mga nasa loob niya.”

thank you so much migs of mgg.

keep it up!

and a very happy new year to you and your love ones.

  1. it is nice to know that, even as we are branded outcasts and different by people who lack the knowledge of who and what we are, we still make a difference in the lives of people around us and people who take time to really listen and get know the real us.

    thaks migs for being a very good influence to everyone.
