If your kid was gay.
Yes or no and  why?
My job is to love, support and guide my children. I believe that being LGBTQ+ is not a choice and I would support them wholeheartedly.

                                        I tried hard to raise my children to know that it would be alright with me if they were gay. I wouldn't say things like "when you grow up and get married." As same sex marriage was not legal at the time. I would say something like "you are going to make your partner very happy someday", when they were especially sweet. I bought gender neutral clothes and toys. That's better anyways, no one should feel like they have to fit into a preconceived mold. I made sure to include my gay friends in our lives. It is very important for your child to know that he is loved and won't be rejected.

                                        I don't understand the question. Yes or no what? If you mean would I disown my child for something they can't help, then no, I would not. I did not. I will not. My child is my child. Nothing can change that.
I don't understand parents who refuse to have anything to do with their lgbtq+ children. What happened to "we don't care, as long as the baby is healthy?" And even if the child is not healthy, you still have a responsibility to give them the best life possible. If you don't accept that, you should not bring a child into the world.

                                        As others have said I have to assume youre asking if we'd be supportive or not. Hell yeah I'd be supportive, because theres no one other than your partner that you owe more love to than your kids. Almost nothing about who any of us is, was something we asked for. When you hit puberty did you have to consciously decide whether to be attracted to boys or girls? Could you or anyone else ever honestly talk you into switchin teams if it made you fit in better? If not then why expect that anyone else can?

                                        Although my son is not gay, because of the line of work I was in, he has always been exposed to the gay community. I've always made it clear that he would be loved and accepted for whatever choices he makes. I also made sure he knew the many struggles of the gay community.

"If my kid was gay".... Irrelevant. "
"Yes or no and why?" Why what? Are you asking why kids are gay? If so, IDK, I'm not an expert, it has something to do with DNA while the fetus is developing.

                                        Honestly, I could care less. What I do care about is that he's honest, hard working and treats people with the level of respect that he would expect to receive. His sexual orientation doesn't change any of the above. Gay or not he should be honest, gay or not he should work hard, and gay or not he should treat people with respect if they're deserving of it.
