That is all kinds of fucked up.
Is that some sort of christian propaganda? For crissakes, I understand the educating children about sexual abuse, but for crissakes, the "I'm not gay" thing seems a little heady for the audience this seems geared for.
Winning breeds confidence. Losing breeds reality.
I hope that book was made as a joke. I agree with Zip.
I don't actually know the origin of the book. I received it as a forwarded email and it was posted on a facebook page. I have to believe it is for real, because I can't imagine someone going to that amount of effort for a joke.
My favorite parts:
the attempt to link homosexuality and molestation in the psyche of young children
the assertion that molestation only happens "in the absence of a father's love"
page 4 when the mother tells the kid her problems and he feels "strange"
page 7-8 there is sports poster with a football punter. Has there ever been a poster made to glorigy a punter.
page 9 the bubble with "Hey Faggot!!!!" and the claim that a teenager doesn't know what it means
last page: he needed his dad's "touch"?
"The moon is a light bulb breaking
It'll go around with anyone
But it won't come down for anyone"
Pretty misguided attempt to deal with a huge social ill all the way around. Of course, linking homosexuality with molestation as a cause is just plain dumb. That's why I suspect this is the work of christians.
Winning breeds confidence. Losing breeds reality.
My girlfriend has worked with abused children before, and she isn't that offended. Apparently, there have been cases where molested kids have been confused about their sexual orientation. However, I still see an agenda and indoctrination attempt when I look at it. Anyways, back to random pictures.

It certainly does seem to be pushing something that its not explicitly stating. My only reason not to think its a ... lets say LDS book is that they wouldn't be so subtle about it. There'd be crosses on the wall of the house and a couple bible verses in there and the ending would be in church and about loving God.
It would also be on gold plates.
STEW BEEF!
