My 19 year old son told me a few months ago. I told him not to worry that things would not change between us, he will always be my son and I will love him unconditionally. What would you say?

Just to answer reined comments, before my son telling me he was gay he always was very quiet (most probably depressed) but since he told me and I have accepted him the way he is he is a changed person much happier and living life to the fullest!

i think you handled it perfectly...you were honest to him and i think that with any kids, thats all they really want from their parents, and i'm sure the fact that you said you will still love him meant a great deal to him...i would have done the same...

Deep in my heart I would be disapointed. Not in him, or myself, but just in general. Everyone has an idea of how there child will turn out. i always picture my son with a beautiful wife and beautiful (blood) children. with that said, my sons happieness comes first. If he is happy I don't care if his mate is male or female. I would tell him that I am glad he could be open with me and for that i feel Privileged. I would tell him to keep his head up stand tall and be proud of the person he is no matter what anyone says. I would say his sexual prefernce does not effect the fact that I love him and support him in all his choices.

you're his mom. mom's tend to have an instinct while their son is gay and as long as you're examining that genuine, fairly than each and all of the seen signs and indicators, then you truly are probably genuine. it somewhat is nice which you truly desire him to come again out to you while he's waiting, with the aid of fact confronting him in the previous then ought to be adverse, the two on your relationship and his own esteem and emotional desires. As his mom, i think of you will understand a thank you to react. he's your son. You nourished him from concept and function raised him to be the guy he's as we talk, loving the socks off him alongside the way. mothers such as you do no longer strengthen on timber, so while he does come out to you, I essentially desire he's conscious only how fortunate he's. Then it somewhat is all the way down to actuality. be confident that he's conscious approximately secure gay intercourse and places it into practise each and all of the time. be confident he additionally is conscious approximately retaining himself bodily and emotionally secure, with the aid of fact out interior the huge huge international there are risks and risks from adult adult males after one element in basic terms, or each and every so often worse! in basic terms frightening if he takes damaging aspects and does not use common experience and fails to act on his instincts while something only does not experience genuine. somewhat some gay appropriate suggestions on the internet, yet once you seem for it, be warned, some is sexually show. Then permit him understand you're there if he faces issues or stressful situations. do no longer decrease than estimate the potential of a mom's love.

He's your son. You don't want to up and leave him, he needs you. Just be accepting. Don't Judge him, my best friend is gay, and the only reason I know is because he needed someone there for him, that wouldn't judge. Be supportive. Just make sure to tell him to use protection, and watch out for himself. But to top everything off, make sure he knows that you love him. Because then he will come to you when he needs someone to talk to/advice anything. Just act like nothings different than before you knew. Good Luck!!!

If my son told me he was gay it wouldn't bother me in the slightest. As long as he was with someone who respected and loved him, but that goes for any relationship gay or straight.

it would be very difficult because that is not openly accepted in society. i would love my son no matter what. you have to support him and stand by him. i am sure that it is hard for him to come out. it will make it alot easier on him knowing that he has your support.
you are a good mother.

as long as he's happy and his partner treats him with love and respect i wouldnt be bothered if he were gay or straight. if a guy can make him happy n a girl cant then go for the guy!

That is not my case ........so i dont know how my reaction would have been..
Anyways.........i think that one cant lose a son bcoz of that. Our sons will be ours in spite of which their sexual preferences are.
I dont blame anyone, but sometimes i think if us, as parents, havent contributed for that happens that way.
I have 2 sons, but as i told you, i havent faced a moment like that, but i'll love them anyway they were.
I think u acted well............

I'd say "Great, now I know who I can set you up with" and go on planning a wedding and grandkids birthdays. They can adopt in most states now.
