Right on. He is probably having a real hard time right now coming to terms with his own sexuality internally. What he doesn't need is to be judged and separated from his family. Accept him for who he is and make sure he knows it, otherwise you may lose him for good.
My brother didn't "officially" come out to the family until his late 20's early 30's. We all knew it, but we never spoke to him about it. It would have been much easier on him if someone approached him earlier on and promoted an accepting environment, or at least tried to let him know that it was OK. His relationship with my Mother today would certainly be on better terms. Think about him and support him.
