The Belief of A seven year old boy?

     It's so sad the other day I was hanging out with my friend, & he is babysitting this little boy. The little boy leans in & say "I heard your gay" I respond with "yea I'm Gay" The boy then goes on to say "Why are you saying it so loud. What if somebody hears you?" "I don't care if people hear, I'm proud of who I am & if someone doesn't like that then I guess they don't need to be my friend. It's so sad :'( to see that this little 7 year old boy has already been conformed to think like this. My friend goes on to help me try to explain this to the boy. Yet to no result.
