My thoughts as a Christian sex historian on children being same sex attracted

Dr. Lisa Nolland responds to a previous Great Sexpections question about a mother whose 11-year-old recently told her he is attracted to other boys, affirming the need for compassion while raising concerns about current cultural messages around youth and sexuality.

I read the Great Sexpectations question that an 11-year-old has ‘come out’,  leaving a family torn apart by the psychological nuclear bomb detonated in its midst. The pain is palpable. The Woman Alive advice columnist, another mother who had been through a similar situation, was reassuring. In fact, she had survived and gained much from this journey: ‘Your child is created in [God’s] image, wonderfully and uniquely, and loved beyond measure . You don’t have to have all the answers, just a heart that’s open’.
