Item Description...
Homosexuality: is it learned, biological or both?The answer to this question deeply concerns parents. They want to know how they can best raise their children. A common belief today is that nothing can be done to foster the development of healthy heterosexual orientation in children. But the clinical experience and professional research of Dr. Nicolosi and others indicates otherwise.In this groundbreaking book Joseph and Linda Ames Nicolosi uncover the most significant factors that contribute to a child's healthy sense of self as male or female. Listening to moving recollections from ex-homosexual men and women who describe what was missing in their own childhoods, the Nicolosis provide clear insight for identifying potential developmental roadblocks and give practical advice to parents for helping their children securely identify with their gender. Replete with personal stories from parents, children and ex-homosexual strugglers, A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality offers compassion and hope for all those parents who seek to lay a foundation for a healthy heterosexual identity in their children. |

 | RESEARCH THE AUTHOR BEFORE YOU BUY THIS BOOK Mar 6, 2007 |
| Being media and psychology major (and gay) I am appalled that some might actually implement this authors suggestions. After reading this book I researched the author and discovered that he has been ostracized by nearly all-mainstream members of the medical and psychological community. After being ostracized and nearly expelled from most mainstream medical and psychological organizations he and his groups of quacks formed NARTH. Not only has his group been severely criticized by the APA, American Psychiatric Association, and many other medical association they have been involved too in controversial treatments of homosexuals that nearly all medical and psychological professional have deemed harmful. Parents please don't buy this book and if you must please consult with the APA before implementing any of these suggestions. | | |  | Very Beneficial knowledge Jan 29, 2007 |
| It was so nice to read the real reasons behind homosexuality. My husband and I used alot of the information with our son and it helped tremendously. I wish the truth of this could get out to the public and prevent alot of despair that occurs in the gay culture. | | | | I guess negative stars is not possible! Jan 21, 2007 |
| I am appalled that "the Church" continues to teach such horrendous mis-information! I truly feel sorry for individuals who believe that if they just get married, everything will be OK. Instead, two people often end up in a phony relationship that is unfulfilling to either one. Is that really what God intends for us? | | | | disgusting... Dec 7, 2006 |
| These are your sons and daughters, you should be loving them for them, not their sexual orientation. | | |  | Concerned mother Nov 20, 2006 |
| After witnessing certain behaviors displayed by my four year old son over a period of about 2 years, I felt in my heart that we had a child who was wonderful but was certainly not the norm. We have raised three grown children before him so I think I can speak from motherly experience. I ordered this book just looking for information and hoping, because in my mind, coming from a twenty five year background in nursing, I had always believed that homosexuality was genetic and I don't think anyone could have convinced me otherwise. I got the book and felt instantly as though the authors were writing from a tremendous amount of personal clinical experience and at the point, because the advice given was going to only bring my husband and son closer in their relationship, I asked my husband to read the book and implement some of the advise given...All I can say, is that in a short 4 or 5 weeks his behavior is much more inline with the behavior displayed by my first son at his age...there are very specific signs to me which would be too many to share here, that this time spent on particular male activities between my husband and my son has produced this change. It is also apparent that when my husband puts it on the back burner and doesn't spend the time with him, he sometimes regresses which the author discusses at length. We are both very commited to this, because I believe that my son in the long run will obviously be happier if he is well adjusted and living with the norm of men as a heterosexual. I guess it is far too soon to tell if this truly is a solution to a very complex problem, but I will say that the prehomosexual behaviors have almost disappeared and he is "running and gunning" with the boys in the neighborhood instead of always wanting to hang out with the girls..and most importantly, it is wonderful to see him run to his Dad when he gets home from work with excitement about what they are going to do together that evening. At the least, they will know each other better and know how to communicate as father and son...I might be lucky because my husband is very sensitive and caring, he just works a tremendous amount of hours. We have made this a priority and we are better as a family. I wanted to leave an honest review of this book for some other mother who is extremely worried that her son always picks the pink balloons and people always laugh and stare and don't understand that he is serious..it has given me a reason to hope. | | | Write your own review about A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality
