I'm afraid for my nephew, and action MUST be taken. If I can't cure him, the embarrasment to my family's prestigious name may force other family members to physically harm him.

NO, there isn't, and any attempt to do so will severely damage your nephew's psyche and potentially lead him to suicide and/or other deadly forms of self destruction. I agree with you that ACTION MUST BE TAKEN, and that action is to educate the a** backward morons in your family, and help them (and yourself) to accept him as he is. This is NOT a lifestyle that one chooses (would you, given all the prejudiced idiots out there??!!). HE IS NOT A DEVIANT OR AN EMBARASSMENT--YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HAVING ASKED THIS QUESTION!! There is no "cure" because there is no illness here. If he is a minor and you believe he is in physical danger, you need to do something about it--being homosexual is not a reason to do physical harm to another human being! WHAT THE F**K kind of "prestige" do you think your family or your family name has that would allow you to think of and treat another human being this way??!! Oh, I am sure there are lots of juicy skeletons in that family closet... hypocrites!!! If he's not a minor and you are concerned about how the family would react to his "coming out" publicly, advise him to disown the family...doesn't sound like he'd want to be around them anyway!

Is this a joke? It sounds funny! Homosexuality is not something to be cured. Some people are born gay and others aren't. If your family name is so prestigious, then everyone should be secure enough to accept your nephew the way he is and not try to change him.
But if you still aren't satisfied with this answer, ship him off to some christian boarding school where they will say they cured him and yet years later it will be found out that he molests kids because he never felt accepted as a child and was never allowed to explore his true sexuality.
So in conclusion, either accept that you have a gay nephew or try and "fix" him and have him become a catholic priest!

That is sad to hear. Your nephew had no more choice in being gay, than you did in the color of eyes you have. If you want to blame someone, I'm sorry to say this ones on God's shoulders, he made each of us in his own likeness. Physical harm will not change him, anymore than beating your son for not being a daughter. Sometimes we can't choose who or what we are. If we could we would all be white, blond and blue eyed. I think it's time you spoke to someone about this. Good luck and may peace be with you.

What exactly do you find wrong with his homosexuality, first of all. I'm fine with it, as long as the whole world isn't homosexual.
He also is not your son, and if it damages the family's "prestigious", seriously that's so overrated, basically you care more about your name then your nephew.
And "force other family members to physically.."
No one is forcing anyone. I'm sick of hearing stories of children being kicked out because of parents realize that they aren't straight.

NO there's no cure for being human. If that's the only thing your family has to worry about your doing well. Oh, I forgot there is that random violence against gays. Hope he doesn't grow up to wright a tell all book, your "prestigious name" may suffer.

You should love your nephew for who he is. No one chooses to be a homosexual, whether your closed mind wants to think that or not. Why would anyone choose to be something that others, like you, look down upon. Love your nephew and be there for him because he's going to need his family by his side through any difficulties his sexual preference bring up. Your love for him should be WAY more important than your family's prestigious name. Get over yourselves and be a good family for God's sake!

This child may have a gender nonconformity and not the same as homosexuality, but continue thought or name calling can sure cause a child with gender nonconformity to thinking they were born gay. A child is not born gay, but children make choices from influences, and this child may have been influenced to becoming gay and not even remember choosing this and thinking they were born gay.
I would ask the parents if they have heard of gender nonconformity, it can be biological or learned. This child may Be thinking he may be gay, or not. Because not all children with a gender nonconformity will choose to become gay, may never be influenced in that manner but rather form attractions on the opposite gender.
Point is find out were the child is on that level. Be friendly and do not be judgmental or the child will not talk with you.

No, absolutely not.
You can't change the way someone feels about their sexuality.
Just accept it and move on and ask him not to flaunt it in front of you if that makes you feel better.
God, people need to really grow up about this and accept it.
Not that I am saying it's right, but this day and age, there are so many nice homosexuals out there.
Best friend you can have!
