A tough question I know, but how do you think you would react if your child came out to you as homosexual? I personally can’t speak from experience, but I’ve been thinking about it a lot recently. I know in my heart that I would be accepting no matter what, but it’s so hard to say how you would react to something until you experience it firsthand.
Well, I would hope that perhaps every parent on here would accept them, but who knows.....there's some homo-phobes on here, I'm sure.
I would like to think that if a parent weren't tolerant of the gay lifestyle that experiencing it through their child may open their minds a little bit.
Why do I care who my child has sex with? Growing up gay still has its problems, but there are far worse things I could think of. If he/she were my child, I'd welcome it with open arms. Then I'd hang a rainbow flag proudly from the front porch. -Cindy
Absolutely! Unconditional love is just that - unconditional.
I feel saddened for anyone who has parents who would do otherwise.
Hopefully some day this question will not have to be asked and that people will be tolerant of all differences, whether they are racial, sexual, religious, beliefs, or anything else that artificially divides us.
No I could not accept it, I would love them anyway but I can not accept anything that goes against Gods laws.
I have a uncle and a nephew that are gay and I love them very much, but I can not support them in this choice. I don't shun them nor do we talk about it anymore but they know where I stand. My uncle has aids and I'm afraid it won't be long until my nephew will get it.
This breaks my heart.
I would be dissapointed inititally but would NEVER let them know it. Unless they found this thread
It would probably take me a while to get over the shock. I would be more dissapointed however if my daughter had a husband who beat her or my son married a woman who cheated and did drugs.
I would always make sure they felt confident in their choice.
No. I would disown them. It would also mean I failed as a parent.
