What would you do if you found out that your daughter/son is gay/lesbian?

WELCOME to myLot Yuna!!! Thank you for asking this question in a way NOT to promote gay bashing!!! I was raised by parents who ALWAYS accepted me for who I am. No matter what I did in my life they were there saying they loved me. My Mom always said you don't have to like everything your child does, but you gotta love them. That she has ALWAYS done!!! With the way society treats the gay/lesbian community, I would be concerned & want to make sure that they realized how rough their life was going to be. Then I would accept then unconditionally for the loving child they are!!! I have had several homosexual friends. If the whole world had the love & tolerance for their fellow man as the homosexual community does, then we would have a GREAT world here!!! My child would have my TOTAL support!!!

if my son is goin to be like that... i will do something to make her/him to be normal as possible... i dont want to see her/him to be like that its just that it is not good... i know that it is not easy to change them but i know there is a way to change the faith of my son...

The main thing in this kind of a situation is that the child knows that their parent still loves them and accepts them for who they are. I would accept my child unconditionally. That is what a parent is supposed to do. We are there for are kids to help them and guide them and if that is the choice of the child who are we to look at them and say that they can't do that. We should support the child's decision and let them know they are loved.

I would honestly do nothing, except to continue to love them as I always have. I do not think the gay community tries to be that way, I believe they are born with it in them. They are doing nothing wrong, but trying to live their lives without judgement from others. I would never deny my son, if it turned out he was gay, big deal, there are more important things to worry about rather than that. It's a way of life, and I do not have the right to judge.

i wouldn't care either way. when we found our nephew was gay it was no biggie to me. we have what we call a adoted son who's gay. we love him either way

I have two sons and wanted them to grow healthy and normal, that is every parents wish for their kids.. Regarding to your question if i found out that my sons are gays, first it would be very hard for me to accept the reality, we all know that gays anf other alike are not much accpeted in the society, yes there are coiuntries, organizations and society who accepts them but still there are who can't understand them and criticize their nature, It would be hard for me coz i know what they will be going through, some people may critizise them and possibly they may get some good treatment outside the house and as a mother it woulf be very hard for me. I will accept them as who really they are, i will guide them as much as i can, i cant so anything about it, though i do believe that being gay or lesbian is a choice but still whoever they are i will still accept them and my love will not change, still they are a gift of God.

I would love my child with all my heart and I would fight and protect them against anyone who would try to hurt them if they are gay.

well, i dont have a family of my own yet, but if my son will turn out to be gay and my daughter a lesbian guess i'll still accept them for who they are and help them to become good citizens. there's nothing wrong with being different. well at least for me. i am straight. 100% female..physically and psychologically!hahaha but my sisters a lesbian but i love her so much, doesnt make any difference at all. i have a gay cousin whom i am very close with, we talk about many things and we can open up with each other, so it's not really a problem for me. they are humans with feelings and real people..

I would do nothing other than love them and wish for their happiness.

I would accept them and love them same as I have loved them before. For me as long as they don't do anything wrong to other people then it is ok if they are lesbian or gay. Also as long as they do good they would surely make me a proud parent.

My daughter being a lesbian wont change the fact that she is my daughter.I have to understand her.If she's happy then why argue.But I must admit the first time I discovered she was a lesbian I was shocked a bit.

hi yuna! if that happens to my son, i'll just accept as he is. but i will still pray that he will be enlightened. happy myLotting

I would love them and support them. You put all your effort into raising them, I think that as long as you have raised them to the best of your ability then however they chose to live their life you have done a good job. It should not matter who they date or marry.
