What will you do if you learned that your kid is a gay or lesbian?

I would not try to change them at all. I would let them be. What I want for my children is to have a good, happy, safe life. Whatever their s exual orientation is, doesn't matter to me. With everything else in the world to worry about, being upset because my child is Gay is flat out silly. I can't believe that parents really disown their children over it. A parents love should be unconditional, not "I'll only love you if you're straight and do what I want."

I have thought about this and I always said I wouldnt agree with it, However they are my son and daughter I would try to support them in anyway I could.

I would never try to change them or shun them. Some of my daughters' friends are gay and I love them as much as I love my own daughters. It hurts me deep inside to here other people say ugly things about others who are different. I have always encouraged my daughters to be what they want and who they are. They are free spirits and wonderful adults now.

I would still love them because they were apart of me. They would have a right to live their life the way they choose to. Life is hard enough without telling someone else how to live. I'm having a hard enough time making decisions for myself. :)

All these responses prove that we are really starting to accept each other as humans, no matter who we are.

I will have a heart to heart talk with my child. I will explain lengthily how God created only man and woman and no other sexuality in between. So if he feels like a woman and she feels like a man, they'd better hold themselves and be men enough. Each one of us can become straight persons if only we'd choose to do so. It is really a matter of choice whether we live in this world the wrong way or the right and proper way.

I will still love my boys and girls by all means and accept the fact they are gays or lesbians. Meanwhile, I will warn them for certain precautions and consequences so that they are aware how to look after themselves.

nobody wanted them to be like that. i would just accept it, although at first there might be a feeling of rejection and intimadation. they are still children of God and as long as they are good citizens, they do not harm other people, helpful to the community, as most of them are, to mention a few, beauty consultants, movie directors, writers, dancers in the entertainment world or even executives, tv hosts, public and private officials.
