“I came out as gay, and that’s how it all started; I was advised that if I ever did everything that he didn’t approve of, I would be expelled from school, I’d don’t ever see my mates again, and he was likely to harm my friends if he didn’t tell people what he would want.” Said Michael, Amber, and Jim’s son. He further added that his expenses were cut off because he was gay.
