My Son - Who Happens to be Gay

I have two sons.  My younger son, Ian, happens to be gay.  I didn't set out to have a gay son.  But then Ian didn't set out to be gay, and to be honest, it came as a shock to him as well.  He was confused about why he felt "different."   And he struggled alone.  Even now, I can't imagine what that was like for him when he was only nine and had a crush on a boy in the fourth grade.
