I have recently hired a babysitter for my children and I have come to suspect he is gay. I'm concerned that it will "rub" off on them, or that they will catch it or something. How soon is too soon to warn them of the dangers of homosexuality?

my kids were abused by a babysitter we knew and trusted for years, also trusted by all the other neibors. Take this as you please.

Are you really this stupid or are you just pretending? Surely even you would be able to understand that
a) another person's sexuality is none of your business,
b) homosexuality is not a choice, it is something you are born with, hence no amount of being around homosexuals can "rub off on you" if you're not homosexual yourself,
c) unless you have reason to suspect your babysitter of molesting your children, you'd be wise not to fling around unsubstantiated allegations or "warning" your children of any imagined "dangers",
d) roughly 10% of the world's population is gay, in other words, if your children know or have contact with 100 people, it stands to reason that 10 people currently in your children's lives are in fact gay, which begs the question, how are you going to make sure your kids are surrounded by nothing but straight people at all times?

.... You must have been exposed to a shitload of STUPIDITY when you were growing up because it's obviously "rubbed off" on you. There is no danger in homosexuality, you numbnut. I have plenty of gay friends, and let me tell you that they are much more highly educated, success-bound, sophisticated, OPEN-MINDED, and secure about their identities than most of the straight people I know. Do your freaking research first and NOT from some stupid religious site that gives you biased "statistics" or from some hypocritical book full of fairy tales that a bunch of chauvinistic assholes wrote that you should've outgrew when you were eight. You're BORN gay, straight, omni, bi, lesbian, etc. If your kids are, then they are. If they're not, then they aren't. Ooooh... big f*cking deal. *rolls eyes* What? Are you going to stop loving them if they are? Did you know that roughly 1 out of every 10 men are born gay? Look around you, idiot... that's a whole lot of homosexuals.
You ignorant fools should not be allowed to post...

My friend, you should slap yourself in the face.
There is no possible way you can rub off "being gay" on your children. And you can't catch it, you're born like that. It's a genetic disorder. I would know, I recently studied this and did a very long report on it.
Besides, gay or straight they are still a person and if you don't like them that much then fire them and get a new babysitter.

Homosexuality does "rub off" onto anyone and no-one can catch it. How sad in this day and age that we have people like you asking ridiculous questions. I feel sorry for your children that they have such an ill informed father. May the universe help these children into becoming great informed people.....No wonder homophobia still exists

Homosexuality first is not a danger, second it will not rub off on your kids, all people are people no matter their sexuality, don't worry about it unless you think that your babysitter is abusing them, if there is no abuse don't worry. Deep down people are people

It won't "rub off" on them, obviously the kid's parents heterosexuality didn't rub off on him. If he takes good care of your kids and is an otherwise perfect babysitter, let it be.

Gay don't rub off on yeah at all. And if this really bothers you why don't you just get another baby sitter. This is so funny. Thanks for the humor here I needed a good laugh. Good Luck

hey i am a bit funny with gay i make all my family laugh but get with the real world. homosexuality is not catching. and this guy is probably one of the best around at doing his job. there are gay`s in almost every warp of life now so if he is good at it let him get on with his job. if you feel threatened the fire him.
good luck

i would call the police and have them conduct a background check. stuff like this happens all the time. i think you might wanna start right away in warning them before they turn to the dark side and once they do they will be lost forever and you mine as well disown them.
