It would depend on a lot of things IMO. I know of people who have "come out" as this or that and sometimes that isn't a stand alone thing and can accompany other life choices and ideologies that put more strain on relationships than simply who they choose to love or whatever. But unlike some I WOULD let my kids know if I was disappointed or disapproving of certain things, I always have! If they want to roll their eyes and say "oh mom, you're being crazy and this is what I'm doing" that's fine. Or they can convince me I'm wrong, and they have. But I'm the mom and get to say what I think and they've always known that.
A lot (if not most) parents are at least somewhat unsupportive, and while I understand that it takes time to adjust expectations, it's sad when relationships become strained due to a child coming out. Although some people may feel that sticking to their principles is more important, and if they love their child, maybe they feel that helping them leave the LGBT lifestyle is best.
What does everyone think here?
My child is gay, and on the trans scale which is much more complicated. Not only do I support my kid and think it's OK, I fight for this person. It's not not hard at all for me.

We were involved with Dallas Pflag for many years. Most conservatives are very accepting of their gay children. It is the uneducated Dem/Repub who sometimes struggles.
Progressives mostly use the gay / Trans issue as a political ploy to get the vote.
And when did Gender Bathrooms become an issue? Does anyone really want a old fat Tranny using the girls room with your Granddaughter ?

Surveys have shown more men than women care about the bathroom issue. I'm a woman
and could care less. Our bathrooms all have private stalls. How do you know what gender
someone is anyway? Plenty of people who were born men can look like beautiful women.

It should have been done years ago. Now whenever the men's door is locked I just go to the women's bathroom.
I'd love and support my child just like I do now. But I'd worry for them, because I know their life as an LGBT is going to be so much more difficult because of all the hatred directed at the LGBT community.
So if they did come out you would what? Disown them? Me thinks you still have some things to learn about His message. Maybe one day you will have a nice talk (with him) and see He loves us all, and it is His place to judge, not even a father can override that. Every Day, He is Always with us. Peace
Yes. WHO'S message? I assume you are talking about god,I am not a christian and don't believe in god.
