Supportive Dad Pens Heartfelt Message for his Beki Son
A supportive dad goes viral and earns praises from the online community for his heartwarming message for his ‘beki’ son.
In recent years, stories of fathers standing by their gender non-conforming children have emerged. These fathers are proving that being a good parent means accepting their children for who they are and not trying to change them to fit into traditional gender norms.
John Alexis Avestrus, a Facebook user, shared a photo of himself with his ‘beki’ son. He leaves a heartfelt message for his son, which touched the online community.
Avestrus wrote that his son was born a boy, but he knew deep down that he had a female heart. He couldn’t change his son’s gender with magic, but he still loved him and supported him in anything he was trying to achieve.
Here is the full post:
“PINANGANAK KANG LALAKE PERO PUSONG BABAE
DI AKO MAGICIAN PARA GAWIN KANG iHa !
PERO MAHAL KITA KAYA, SUPORTA AKO,
SA KUNG ANO MAN ANG GUSTO MO
AyaN Ang Wish mo isa Ka ng Sirena ..
Wag mo Hayaang ibaba niLa Ang Bandera mo !
“ILoveYou SANTINO”
-Papa B”
It is important to note that not all fathers are supportive of their children’s gender identity, and many children continue to face discrimination and rejection from their families.
However, the stories of fathers who support their children can serve as a beacon of hope for those who are struggling to find acceptance.
