Prayers for Bobby

[Brandon639]

I just got done watching this movie premier on Lifetime, and all I can say is wow.

Click here (http://www.mylifetime.com/on-tv/movies/prayers-bobby) to learn what the whole story is about.

In wraps, its about a mom who literally pushed her son to suicide because he was gay. She has since become a PFLAG member, and a very active person in the gay community for gay rights.

If you saw it, what did you think?

I watched the trailers for it and I wished I could have seen the movie it looks really good.

[Brandon639]

It honestly is. One of best movies I've seen.

Maybe its because I'm gay and when I tell my parents, I don't want them to act like Bobbys parents.

[Θάνατος]

Yeah I agree that would really suck for you.

[Brandon639]

It would, it would. Recently, I've been thinking about coming out... So its more a reality now that I might have to face it soon...

[Θάνατος]

Hey I would wait to come out if I was you. There is no real need to rush coming out as long as you are comfortable with what you are and who you are.

[Brandon639]

I know. And I've waited a long time to make sure that its what I want and things like that.

But thats another topic, another time. :)

I watched that movie, it was really good, but sad.

[Brandon639]

It was very sad, but it had a great lesson in it, parents need to watch it. They need to know that what they do to their child might cost both of them in the long run.

[Θάνατος]

Wow I just found the ending still on in my time zone and it is really sad. It made me cry
.

[Brandon639]

I cried to. I normally don't cry during movies, but I did for this one. It really has a great lesson to be learned.

[Θάνατος]

It is cool to see how his mom starts to change in the movie. It is so sad that she could not do it while Bobby was alive.

[Brandon639]

Yeah, the entire time I was thinking to myself that I just wanted to smack some sense into her head. >_<

[radboi]

It was a good movie

[Brandon639]

Very much so!
