Should Gay Children Be Treated Differently??

that soo sucks! i guess its hard for parents to accept it right away. it takes time. but think about this: at least she didnt kick u out. i know there are alotta of parents that wont take their child as being gay. and they'll just kick them out n disown them. at least ur mom talks to you and tries in her own way not to make it soo un bareable for u to be around. i think as someone else said b4 that shes probably in denial she doesnt wana believe it. but like someone else also said. she probably saw it from a long time ago. with my mom i havent told her im gay lol. but she's asked me if i was a million times i just deny it because i dont think its the right time for her to know yet. because i told her once about a girl i was in love with. this girl was a very good friend to begin with. n my mom made up all different kinds of excuse for these feelings. saying that im lonely and since she was my bestfriend i was just holding onto her friendship and mistook it for being in love. n she kept mentioning the guys in the past that i have gone out with. and from then on i just deny it and i told her it was a phase becuz its just easier for now. i guess im afraid of how different she'll treat me. n i know she would. im the youngest out of 3. i have an older brother and sister. n im already like the black sheep so i know this will just put the icing on the cake lol. but there have been many times when my mom suspects things n at times it seems like she just wants the truth ( even tho she so knows im gay lol) but then its like she doesnt wanna accept the truth. my mom is uhh a church goer...and she just married a ministers son who is in training to become a minister lol. so yea it has alot to do with what god says is wrong n everything. with my mom its like she has 2 different sides. one time when she asked me if i was gay she came to me in a very loving and caring manner n said i could talk to her about anything n that i could tell her if im gay n she'll still love me becuz im her daughter. n on the other hand shes like " u'll go to hell" lol so yea maybe ur mom is dealing with this too. cuz even tho ur the same person its just a lil hard for her to accept this i guess. give it time, and talk to her about it tell her how her actions make u feel. she'll probably come around goodluck to u ;-)

Everyone should be treated equally imo.

Maybe she has just got to get used to the idea. It sounds like she did not suspect you are gay. If that is the case it must have come as quite a surprise. Try giving her a little time to come round. If she doesent come around then you will have to talk to her and tell her how you feel.

oh thats bad ...im sorry to hear this..i dont think u should be treated like this by your own mother ...she should try to understand the fact that u r her own child...i kno its quite dissapoininting for ur mother to kno that her child is a gay but that doesnt mean that she should treat u differently...i must say that ur mother must sart treating u like a normal kid...

Nobody on this planet should be treted differently, noone means noone.

buddy i know life is harsh to you for sometime now. but pla undersatnd their problem also. u must agree with me that its not natural way of attraction. ok u do inclined toward male but its not easy to digest to such change by anyone. moreso with your family give them time and see wht happens

Have you talked to your mom about how she treats you? It is a touchy situation I'm sure. It isn't fair for her to give the cold shoulder or treat you different than your brother. Tell her when you don't like the way she is treating you and see if she is seeing herself do these things. She may not realize what she is doing and how it hurts you. Tell her your feelings about having kids and what you expect in your life and see if that helps. Good luck with everything.

First off, I'm sorry you're having problems with your mother. Your mother has every right to not have to be near homosexual behavior. If it's her house, she has the right to make the rules there. You may think it's wrong for her to do that, but it's her choice. Many people have strong feelings about homosexual behavior. When you get your own place, I suppose you can make all the rules, eh?

I don't think it is intentional. it is just not want parents expect of their children. She is probably just having a hard time dealing with it. Not really sure how to take it yet.

wow that sucks, it's not like you've had a personality change!....and it sounds like she can't get past her own feelings to think about yours. Maybe one day..:)

never heard of a child gay before, do you really think you are gay, how do you see males, you find them as women or there is something different. i think you are a little confused to deicde what are your preferences.

i understand that you feel hurt but your mum may still be in her" i can't believe it stage".not everyone can deal with finding out their child is gay,it may take her sometime to adjust,so do not preach to her but let her know that you feel hurt at not being given the same allowances as your younger brother,but remeber,she see's him as her only hope of grandchildren at the moment.lolxx

i am sorry to hear bout tat...be patient...sure gt one day, they will accept u..i will always support ur right...

You need to sit down with her and have a good dinner, make sure to try to place yourself in her shoes she may be possibly venting her frustration on you because of how people are treating her...by placing yourself in her shoes you may be able to talk some common ground sense into her. she may not like you descision but its called groing up she atleast needs to respect your choices.best of lukc

NO THEY SHOULD NOT. EVERYONE HAS THE RIGHT TO LOVE THE PERSON OF HIS OR HER CHOICE.

well..in any family there will always be a favorite among siblings, one who gets away with more. in my family that was me. i did a lot of things that my older sisters didn't do in high school. i'm not sure if thats what your mother is doing, but that 'could' explain one part. i'm not saying that what she's doing is right. i am sorry for what you're going through. some people aren't as accepting to their children being gay, and some handle it differently. the comment about not having grandchildren, thats just plain wrong. you have pleanty of options, to have your own blood child or to adopt, either way your mother WILL have grandchildren. have you explained that to her? most people who don't understand the life of someone who is gay are just uneducated about them. they are no differnt from the rest of us, i'm sure you know that. it might take a long time for her to come around and fully accept it. i have considered the fact with my boys, and i wouldn't care who the love, as long as their happy. i'm sure you mother loves you, she just doesn't understand yet. have you tried talking to her and confronting her about her behaivor? have you ever asked her if you could bring you BF home for dinner?? just try...you just might have to force her to accept the world you live in. if she doesn't she just might push you away, tell her that. i'm sure she doesn't want to lose her son.

no but should tell them time by time wht what they have to do and what dont , what is world and what he is actually , let him aware with things , then he will never face any problem in life !

they should be treated the same way straight males and females are treated, because they are normal too.

ofcourse it hurts when u think of it that ur son has become a retard with no moral or ethic values at all.... they didnt bring u up for this.... besides its only the US the most morally dystroyed nation in the whole world which has legallized such a sin and a menace i think there should b a punishment for this n in sme countries it is.. i say for God's sake dude get some dignity its totally un natural and disgusting......sometimes i think God made deseases like HIV just to prevent this

NO,way.
