I apologize for most of the above (way up) responses on behalf of LGBT.
A father should immediately tell his son that he loves him.
That's a start.

a father should accept his son no matter what. i'm 15 and my father tried to kill me and thats not the way it should be. he's headed for happiness yet the road he's on is gonna be very hard. people are going to try to break him and he's going to need all the support he can get. believe me... i'm speaking from your son's perspective somewhat...and if you're tolerate the way you say you are then love him till the end of time. he's your son and no one elses. so only can decide how you're going to treat your son and i hope you choose the right decision.

a father first hugs his son and tells he loves him no matter what and then he tells his son that he believes homosexuality is a sin according to God. He carefully explains to his son what his beliefs are and why and tells his son that respect is mutual and that if the son expects his dad to respect his choice of sexual lifestyle then the son also needs to respect the fathers moral and spiritual beliefs that apose it.Then he prays with his son and has a long talk about how and why his son feels he is gay.He listens...not talks..but really listens. Then he tells him again he loves him no matter what. Then he spends time in prayer for his son and asks God how He wants him to deal with this news and tells God he loves his son no matter what. Then he listens for God's answer....cause He WILL answer. Then he tells his son he loves him and hugs him again and continues to do this for the rest of his life because his son is a gift from God...no matter what. At least this is how it should be....no matter what because God loves everyone , no matter what and so should we.

Support him through his transitional period and his "coming out" stage, and tell him that no matter what he is still your son and you respect him for being honest.
When he asks for advice you give it as best you can, and if he wants to bring a boyfriend home, treat it the same way as you would if it were a girlfriend (and make it clear that theres no distinction between the way you would treat your son's current partners if they were male or female).

first of all, bravo for you for helping your son. As for the daddy, dads are annoying cookies while it involves their little ones being gay. I propose looking an area PFLAG group (mum and dad, families, & friends of Lesbians and Gays) and inspiring your ex and Eric to have open discussions. Get to comprehend his boyfriend, ask him with regard to the life variety, ask while he knew he grew to become into gay, etc. it is going to take dad a while to modify. in spite of everything, he probable had this photograph in his innovations of Eric getting married to a exceedingly female, putting down, and having teenagers and residing his life the way he observed. Now he has to alter that throughout his innovations, that's extra complicated than one might think of. If he somewhat cares for Eric, he will study to settle for it via the years. ideal needs to you and your loved ones. =]

The father is going to have to accept his son for who he is. Doesn't change who he is.

The father should guide his son with his wisdom and experience so that his son will grow to be the best homosexual he can possibly be.

I think the initial reaction would be shock and denial. The end result would be acceptance and unconditional love despite of his son's sexual orientation.
