I watched Prayers for Bobby and I couldn't help but feel his pain.
As i sit here balling like a baby I just wanted to tsay thank you for taking the time to make this video, and sharing your story. Prayers for bobby was actually the first gay interest movies that i watched and i remember watching it on one of the lowest volume settings as to not wake any one while they were sleeping. Its one of my favorite movies that i have ever watched but i never thought of sharing it with my parents. It would be a great segue to a more open discussion about personal maters.
God did'nt fix you because you were'nt broken epic statement. I was lucky I was brought up strict christian but almost everyone accepted it though I was very confused for a very long time.
Beautiful story - blessings
He is so cute!!
Anyone who quotes The Bible ( aka The Bronze Age Goat Herders Guide to The Galaxy ) needs to immediately be put in their place. The Bible - a collection of fairy tales and fictional characters written by unknown authors in unknown times also condones slavery, rape, pillage, theft and considers woman, livestock and slaves as property. F The Bible Thumpers for their ignorance.
I feel very lucky in knowing my late mother would very much approve of my fiance.
He is so beautiful. I'm in love ❤❤❤
Peace be upon you to our beloved brothers and dearest sisters, you kinda need to listen to me, I just want to say that:-
If you got anyone in your life that ever said to you likes ''how did it come to this?'' in the unkind ways, you know what I mean. This is what you tell them, you look at straight into their eyes and you saying:
1. Religion is about Peace and Mercy of God.
2. a) Do you believe in God? Yes. And if God didn’t want you this way, He wouldn’t have made you this way. Correct!
2. b) God have made and want you this way, because He love you. So, you will get more closely and continuously approach to God. He want you to love Him more than everything else, and the love that's exclusive only for Him. Not so many people out there got that chance. That's why you have to learn and understand the hidden message of God.
3. Whenever you come close yourself to God, He will never judge you based on your sexuality. He will judges and look at you, by what kind of a person you are.
4. Humanity is about as long as we bring ourselves to loves someone else, no matter what colour, no matter what race, no matter what religion, and no matter what gender. Humanity just want us to be loved, and to be able to love somebody back.
5. God loves us beyond any and everything else, and that’s who we should love first.
6. And in God's eyes kindness and love are what it’s all about.
How come all these guys from Driftwood look like models?
+Steve Krause - Good question! They do feature more "ordinary" guys on some of their other stories but there is a slant towards the pretty people.
I want to be the guy that you bring home to your parents and marry you.
Such a nice ending to your story. Glad they accepted you eventually.
I freakin LOVE Prayers for Bobby its soooo amazing and i cry everytime i watch it.
It is a great pity parents feel they have the right to meddle in the lives of their frown up children, and an even greater pity that their sons set so much store by winning their approval - especially the mothers
This one just ended to soon. Is there an update?
A really inspiring movie ! congrats Carl :)
Time people get off understanding the Bible from what people preach. Understand and find out more about the real meaning. Unconditional love is in the Bible, and that is the most profound and number teaching from Jesus, so whatever else that contradicts that is not the real meaning of being Christian.
@klinton123 - yes, I wish str8 guys and girls had to sit there parents down and tell them they were "shock horror' straight ! on that subject they have no idea..........
@ImFromDriftwood
Some find it hard to believe, but years after Bobbys' death I would come to know a most loving, compassionate and merciful G-D! Something that dear sweet boy was completely bereft of! Grazie "Amico Mio" for agreeing to be a part of this important project!

Ciao Bello!
I'd really appreciate the opportunity to address Carl on this one! It's Bobby Griffiths' "Once Upon A Time" young lover/boyfriend here, wishing to express how proud I am of you, as well as my gratitude to you for sharing your journey toward leading an authentic life as a well adjusted, productive gay (LGBTQ) person!
@klinton123 'their parents' even sorry spelling error there......
This was a great story. The movie is FANTASTIC and am sure it hits many homes all over the world.
Thanks Now i know... I am not alone in here... Thank you for sharing such a good story... Motivates me lott
That must have been a true turning point in your life with your parents when they said you could bring him home.
It makes me very sad to see "Christians" running gay people away from the church and even from God. Christ would have welcomed and loved Gay people just like he did everyone else.
I like this old format of interview.
DALLAS COWBOYS!!!!!

Warning this video contains spoilers from Prayers for Bobby ..... ;P
