Need advice on how to raise effeminate kids
-
Hello, I am Dhika. I am openly gay and single. This inquiry comes from my brother who asked me about how to raise his youngest child (male) who has been indicated as gay by his feminine gesture and his interest of girly things and acts since his early age.
He does not want to wrongly raise his kid as he thought that his youngest kid also deserves the right to have the same amount and quality of affection and love in his life, the same as what is given to his siblings. But how? I, myself, have no experience on raising children. Please help him with advise. Thanks you so much

He should raise the child exactly how he would raise any of his children. The worst thing is to treat another child different then his other children. however, he must also realize that each child is different and has a different level of need from their parents. Which is the hardest thing for parents to realize.
Now just because a male child displays feminine gestures or has an interest in girly things doesn't mean they are in any way gay. Teh best thing is to accept the child for whom they are and do not presume who the child will be.

I agree with the above post although its kind of old (a month or so) you should raise the child like the other children. If there is a male and female influence in the child's life then he will naturally stray where he is most comfortable. I'd keep in mind that he is effeminate and maybe a bit more sensitive but other than that you'd raise him just like any other child.
As the boy would grow I would ensure he was aware of the importance of being yourself eventhough you may encounter people who would have more conservative values or old fashioned ways.
