“¡Papás, tengan cuidado! Cuando se tiene a un hijo sensible y talentoso, asegúrense de unirse a su mundo y después traerlos al de ustedes. Como lo describí en el Capítulo Dos, la primera vez en donde la vinculación afectiva es crítica para un desarrollo sano del sentido de masculinidad del muchacho es desde el año y medio a los tres años. Durante este periodo, el niño aprende a caminar y a hablar. Después aprende a diferenciarse e individuarse de su madre y debe identificarse con el rol del modelo de su propio género, su padre, o una figura que sustituya al padre. Si esto no sucede, el muchacho seguirá identificando su género con el de su madre. Algunos investigadores y terapeutas de la AMS, creen que este factor es la razón por la que hay más homosexuales hombres que homosexuales mujeres, porque las niñas, aun cuando también ellas se diferenciarán e individuarán de sus madres, seguirán teniendo una identidad de género con ellas. Los muchachos tienen esta tarea adicional en el desarrollo, lo que explica por qué los padres son tan importantes para sus hijos en esta y otras etapas del desarrollo. La buena noticia para los padres de hijos con AMS es que pueden restaurar la relación con su hijo adolescente o adulto en cualquier momento (desde luego esto es cierto también para las madres de hijas con AMS). ¡Nunca es demasiado tarde para sanar!
