I went round for a drink a while back to my son's old violin tutor. We take him a cake for his brithday, he opens a bottle. And we yarn.

He told me of a pupil of his that was not with him currently. The boy is gay. and about 15, maybe 16. And his parents object to his being gay.

A month ago he was shipped with no warning to the USA to be cured of homosexuality. Or that is what we suppose. His parents either live in east berkshire or north west surrey

If he can survive the programme he will return to the UK in August.

If only I knew more I could work to subvert the parents' wishes

It is not love that caused them to despatch him overseas. He is an embarrassment to them

The tutor is horrified. We three, my wife, son and I, were horrified. I can't actually express my horror in words.

I have asked that the boy be given my details if he makes it home. I will help him, if he can be helped
