look seriously being a straight female, i have no issues with gay relationships. however i would be a hyprocrite and an inane one at that if i didn't believe it would be a lot easily and more comfortable to live as a straight individual in this world which is full of prejudices. the mere fact of growing up and public acceptance is bad enough. but when u think after u are all grown up, u think maybe adults will be more understanding and accepting. wrong. marriage, adoption and a whole rack of other issues, just make being gay a really difficult option. i seriously wouldn't care if my child was gay or not as long as healthy and happy. but i wouldn't wish that life on them either.

I've read a bunch of answers and no one so far actually HAS a gay child........so let ol' mom speak up:
I never thought about the sexuality of my children while pregnant with them......
I have 4, boy, boy, girl, girl........the 2nd boy is gay.....I suspected it when he was just 2........my son wouldnt be who he is without this particular aspect.......Granted, I'd still love him, but he is the neatest person....and he didnt have too much trouble coming out....or even in his daily life...he's very well adjusted & happy with his life....and for those of you who want grandchildren....of the others that are straight, one doesnt want them at all, one will put it off for many more years if at all and one is still living at home and hasnt decided yet....so you may not get grandkids, straight or not.......I, on the other hand, am lesbian and provided the most grandkids to my mother........so dont go making up your mind about the future so fast.......ya never know what will come in this life.

ounce they have grown up and can understand there worlds in which they grow up in todays society as demanding as itt is ad with peer pressurees, and everything else going on in there very young lives. this is a tough question but like the old saying goes let them live there own lives and make there own decisions. some day as you well now they wil leave the nest and make there own minds up as too what directions and to what patrtners, or lovers they want in there lives. if they turn out gay or lesbian, dont forget one thing-- they still are your own blood. blood is thicker than water. if they do choose the gay lifestyle or lesbian lifestyle dont abandon themm. you may not like itt. its entirely there own decisions as too what directions they go on in there lives. remember some day they will up leave the nest.

If I could only ever have all straight or all gay children, then I would opt for all straight, purely because I want grandchildren eventually. If I could have a mixture, then I would want at least one straight child, for grandchildren, then the others could be gay, straight, bi or anything else, and I'd still love them.

If I had to have a choice, which clearly is not an option, I would want my child to be straight so that they dont have to go through all the hurt and ridicule this rediculous world throws at anyone who is different in anyway.

I suppose since I plan on adopting it would be good if I somehow wound up with all the gay kids so they could be raised by someone who won't make them feel bad for something they can't control. But I don't think it really matters or is any of my business who my kids end up with. I just hope they have happy relationships with good people.

Honestly, I'd rather my child be straight. But, things change in terms of their growing. I'd rather my child be happy with what she believes in. And me as the parent, would support my child's every decision.

Anyone who answers this either way is not the kind of parent worthy of a child. Your child is your child no matter what. Conditional love is not love, it's a lie.

Honestly, it doesn't mean jack to me what sexuality my child would be. It would be [i]my child[/i]. If they're gay, they can still have children. They would still have options to having kids, adopting, that in vitro stuff. It's hardly impossible. If they're straight, kudos to them. Transsexual, transgender, whatever.
