OVER THE WEEKEND, the enormously popular Facebook page Humans of New York shared the above photo of a little boy crying.

The accompanying caption?

I’m homosexual and I’m afraid about what my future will be and that people won’t like me.

The image immediately struck a chord with over 611,000 people liking the photo in the last three days and scores of people sharing encouraging comments.
