The boy named Tyler revealed his sexuality to his family last year and, while his sisters were ok with it, his father reacted in a horrific way.
Tyler, from Vancouver, shared his dad’s shocking response online.
In an online post to Tyler, he said: “If only you didn’t reject God and His teachings in your life you could have been strong enough to stay from evil and scums that surrounds you.
“People will ridicule me, insult me, and I might turn out to be a criminal. I have enough of all this bulls**t. You are trying to ruin me. This is worst [sic] than death.”
But, despite his father’s dramatic and self-indulgent reply, Tyler insists he still hopes he will be accepted.
He told the Huffington Post: “I’m hoping there’s still the possibility that he could change, even if it takes a while.
“Maybe he could accept me, because that’s all I want… I just want him to be there for me.”
It is thought that Tyler’s mother was shocked by her son’s sexuality, but quickly accepted him.
Tyler added: “I was so, so thankful that my mom supports me.”
