An Ounce of Prevention -- A Great Book!

This is a great book! I'm glad I bought this book and decided for myself (after reading some of the negative reviews) what the underlying causes of homosexuality could be. If you child is confused about his/her gender, this is a "must read." Not only did I gain insight on the probable causes of homosexuality but I felt it also was helpful in pointing out changes that needed to be made in our family life to help my child.

Finally, some truth squeezes past gay propaganda

It is sad that so many individuals still buy into the long ago discredited "research" that supposedly "proves" that homosexuality is genetically based and therefore can't change. Unfortunately, gay activists continue to peddle bad, old research and deny the methodologically sound recent research. The new research (see Robert Spitzer), contradicts their position. Don Schmierer offers good insight and practical advice. If you're worried about your child's gender identity and their future, then read this book!

An Ounce of Prevention

I found this book to be very helpful. For many years I have sought to verbalize what this author says about homosexuality. I agree with his concept of what homosexuality is. I feel this book is a refreshing look that puts responsiblity on the individual rather than taking no responsibility for who or what the individual is.

It's About Time

Thank God someone is willing to tell the truth about the fact that there really is no "third gender," pointing out instead the tragic family dynamics, childhood cruelties and sexual abuses that can play such a significant part in gender confusion. The author of An Ounce Of Prevention has gently and graciously pointed out specific ways parents and other concerned people can, with both spiritual wisdom and common sense, help direct struggling young people toward hope and healing.

Wonderful

Answers many questions. The question of whether homosexuality can be prevented is a crucial one. The answer is a resounding YES! Many gay rights extremists will be upset, but they just don't want to face the truth.
