Wow, that's a tough one. Of course there is nothing wrong with being gay, it's not like it changes his status of being a respectable human being with the same rights as any of us. The problem with the situation is that in junior high, it does. You don't want to tell him that it's o.k. and to come out to the whole school, because at that age it would make school pretty frickin difficult. But then, if you tell him to keep it quiet, he may get the impression that it's something to feel shameful about. I'm afraid that you are in quite a pickle there mt guy. Perhaps a school counseler or someone of that nature, maybe from his church, would be the one's to take it up with.
