The letter first appeared on the FCKH8 Facebook page, according to Gawker. An official explained that the letter was given to him by Chad, the 16-year-old boy mentioned in the letter.

In the letter, the grandfather responds to his daughter Christine, who says his son is “a disgrace to the family” and an “abomination.” She is also surprised that he is gay because she did not raise him that way.

Here is the translated letter:

“Dear Christine,

I am disappointed in you as a daughter. You are right that we have a disgrace in the family, but you are wrong about who the person is.

Expelling Chad from your home simply because he told you he was gay is the real “abomination” here. A parent who rejects their child is ‘unnatural’.

The only intelligent thing I’ve heard you say is that ‘you didn’t raise your son to be gay’. Of course I didn’t. He was born that way and didn’t choose to be left handed either.

However, you did make the choice to be hurtful, petty and stupid. So if we disown the children, I think I’ll take the opportunity to say goodbye to you. I now have a wonderful grandson to raise and I don’t have time for a heartless girl.

If you find your heart, you can call us.”

The identities of the teenager and his grandfather were never revealed, making the story difficult to verify. Nonetheless, there was a lot of support for this grandfather and his grandson. Not for nothing has this powerful message of understanding, support and hope gone viral!
