Homosexuality ‘spread from cities to the village’ – The Star Kenya

She said lack of communication is one of the main challenges facing families as parents get too busy looking for money, making it difficult for them to understand what is going through their children’s minds or even monitor what they watch and read.

“Whether we support it or not, we need to understand that it is happening and devise ways of dealing with it, especially at the family level,” Wambui said.

“Whenever our children are going through things we don’t understand, let us normalise seeking professional help in order to offer the right guidance.”

The rights activist further called on medical practitioners to make it possible for homosexuals to seek medical care when they suffer from STDs, saying stigmatising them only exposes others to the disorders.

The constitution, she said, provides for health rights of each Kenyan regardless of their backgrounds or affiliations.
