The Most Disturbing Children Book
This is amongst the funniest and scariest. Long live the fine line between educational and downright creepy. Here are some shots of the book.

A book about the cure for homosexuality?
Is that what they’re saying?
Oh, they’ve forgotten about the electroshocks, that helps a lot also… :-0

Seriously…that is a book that you would show a child/teenager under psychiatric supervision, that had been abused. It would allow them to open up and relate to the story. It would give voice to their experience and make it tangible enough for them to talk about it.
That story is not so uncommon. In psychiatric circles I have come across men who thought they were gay, but weren’t. They were sexually abused as children and that kind of contact with men became their norm…they knew no other.
It’s a sad chapter in the life of abused children, but in order to heal you have to acknowledge the pain.

this is yet another attempt to link homosexuality to paedophilia
“follow the money”, people!
I’m quite sure the writer and or the publisher can be found in the creepy right wing christian taleban fundie-scene.

I have been an abused kid. That book wouldn’t have done shit for me. It doesn’t help to know that you’re not the only one. Others will deal with what they have to deal with. The only way to get a kid to talk is to win his trust. And no book or BS can give that.Besides, it alters the kid’s memory when he has to tell his version of the story. Then it comes in episodic memories, because the kid sometimes wants to forget.
What scares me is that a lot of people here want it to be a book to help abused kids, but don’t think of the damage it can create for them. What do you do if the abuser is the father? What do you do when you need more than touch time and talk? They don’t mention the physical aspect of the ordeal, sometimes kids have wounds. They don’t perform well in school. They don’t talk about what to do when you don’t feel safe, or how you should talk to someone you trust, or the fact that this guy up there “might” really be gay.
I’ve been around abused kids. They don’t need story books. They want to tell what has happened. They want to open up, just as long as they feel safe. And what comes out of their mouths, well, you just know it’s the truth.
No offense, I just don’t believe in that book as a therapy.

Why does that counselor have his arms all around our young hero there near the end?

This is obviously not a real children’s book; it’s just some photoshop job some weirdo did. It’s really easy and if it was real it would never be published-especially with words like “faggot” and “queer”.

Hannah, it isn’t some photoshop job by some weirdo because I have the actual book I bought recently off the internet.

The book is real. It is self published, which answers the how does this get published, not by a mainstream publisher.
It is certainly not a healthy aid to those that have suffered childhood abuse. There are books that help children open up, this is not one of them. The author clearly has an agenda, to promote the idea of same gender attraction disorder and then try to treat people and convert them to normal. The hidden agenda makes this truly vile. Childrens books should be no place for a specific religious and politcal agenda.

Whoa, that was really creepy.
But, I got pissed off because I thought it was a stereotype of how guys become gay. I’m bisexual and I have a good relationship with my father(not a sexual relationship, btw).
And this won’t help those who were abused.
It seems more like “Abuse? That’s nothing! It’s you that’s making a big deal over it.”
Besides, it seems like it’s more focused on homosexuality than abuse. It’s like the parents and the therapist are more worried about their child becoming gay than the pain the child experienced from the abuse.
