Just like everyone else said, I would still love my son more than anything. I would want him to tell me and I would support him in any way I can. Of course I would be worried about him since there a lot of homophobic people out there in the world and I wouldn't be able to protect him forever.

When a parent finds out that their child is gay, they go through a lot of different emotions. There is denial, anger, sadness, confusion, and then, hopefully acceptance. We as parents should love our kids unconditionally!! Love includes ACCEPTANCE!! Don't get me wrong it's not easy, because you know how much tougher their life will be because they are gay. No, it's not right, but it's reality. All you can do is sit down with your child and talk open & honest with them. They will appreciate your honesty more than you know. And yes, it's alright to ask questions!! Just be sure to let them know that you love them very much and that nothing has changed in your relationship with them, that they always have had, and still do, your total support. It's a tough one for any parent, but just think how much tougher it is for your child!!
They didn't choose to be gay; they were just simply born that way!!

I would not care if my child were gay. I would love my child whether or not he or she was a lesbian. I don't have children of my own just yet, but I have a friend who is gay and I don't see that as a problem. I also speak with Spanish-speaking internet friends and they are lesbian and gay. I could care less if they are. I like them for who they are as people. What difference does it make if a person is gay or straight? That person is still a person and the only difference is that person's gender preference.

I wouldn't do anything.... What would you do if your offspring turned out to have blue eyes?

In all honesty, I would be a little saddened. Life can be so hard even under normal conditions. But, my actions, feelings and unconditional love would not change at all.

I'd do exactly the same as if my offspring turned out to be straight.

That is, love him, support him and let him live his life as he sees fit. I don't understand what his sexuality would have to do with it.

Absolutely nothing. They would still be my child. if my daughter turned out to be a lesbian, I would still love her and hope she finds an awesome girlfriend, or if my son told me he was gay, I would hope he finds an awesome boyfriend who could pick out awesome clothes for me when I'm in my 50's!! The point is, it doesn't change who they are, just who they love. They are still my flesh and blood and nothing can take that away from me.

I kick them out of the house, try to have them commited to a mental insane asylum, hire a priest to do an excorcism on them, beat them up, kick them out of the house, hide all the other children from them, and let them know mommy and daddy will love you again as soon as you quit bein such a queer!

I'm kidding people...i'd love them just the same, it's biology, I just wanted to give a real ignorant backwoods answer to balance out all this logic and reason :)

If your child is gay you should love them no matter what there sexual orentation is. I know at first it may be hard to except. Just try and except it. I have a friend who is gay and telling his parents was the hardest thing he's ever had to do. He said it made it alot easier that his parents were excepting in every way. So try as hard as you can and love him/her the same.

My husband says that its easy to say now that you wont be upset, but I think that you would be a bit unable to understand for a while, but at the end of the day they are still your children who you raised and loved!
