To all the Parents who have Teenagers. ( advice and bi help )?

yeah i have a Teenage son and he 17 and bi and this guy he was trying to get with really made him feel really bad, he went on a date with my son, and from what my son told me that he felt that the guy was discussed by him, because my son is kinda big he weighs 240lbs but you can't tell when looking at him, so my son said he was getting looked at all weird from him and felt really bad. so the next day later ( today ) his friend called him and said that the guy who he went on the day with he shouldn't talk to him anymore because the guy said he was fat and that he never wants to date a black guy again. so my son all sad and feels very bad about his weight and told me her always here that from both guys and girls.. and all i could say is son its okay if you want me and you can both change are eatting habits and workout together , he said yeah but still seem sad, i feel like i didnt do the best i could to cheer him up.. what can i do to help?To all the Parents who have Teenagers.

I think you handled it appropriately. Diet and exercise is the way to go. Not because your son should lose weight to please some guy, but because 240lbs is unhealthy for a 17y/o. Also, the gay community (okay not the whole community but a large amount of the community) is obsessed with appearance, so it might be harder for him to find someone bc of his size. Its incredibly shallow, but that's how it is.To all the Parents who have Teenagers. ( advice and bi help )?
i think you did the right thing there.by the way i dont think anything can cheer you up when you worried about you body so all i can say is remain determind and complet you goal together and hell feel better about himself soo he might be happier..
you could try diet and exercise it worked for me
I don't have any teenage kids but i believe i can give you some valuable information. unfortunately in our society we do not accept people who are big. i mean this should not be the first time weight is a problem from your child. what i suggest you do is let him no that in life if you don't look the part you will catch hell. as mean and weird as that sounds i think you know exactly were i am coming from. i suggest you and your son talk about it and if he is for the new eating plan than kudos for him but if not just let him no what lies ahead.
