I asked him did he want to tell me anything and he said no. I asked him about it, but ducked out of mentioning the whole gay thing, hoping that he might open up to me. He was never as streetwise as his brothers, although he has brains to burn and does very well at school.
The last one to use the computer was our middle son, then aged 15, but young for his age. It was gay men, going at it, with nothing left to the imagination: toned muscular young men having all kinds of sex with each other. Like most people, we have a computer, and two years ago, I turned it on and the usual list of sites came up, except one, which froze me - more for its bluntness than anything else. We talk and have a bit of fun usually, but no 'meaning of life' stuff. We sit down almost every evening to a meal around the table, no TV allowed. My wife gave up working outside the home to look after the lads. We're not especially close, in that the kids don't really open up to us - unless there's an explosion, which is very rare indeed. We have our ups and downs, like any family. QI am married - very happily - with three sons, all in their late teens.
