Either way, I would still be disappointed, but I love my children and will stand by them. |
I find this particular attitude disheartening (and this is not directed at any one poster). So, it's ok to be gay as long as a person doesn't act upon their feelings? I don't understand. We don't expect "straight" persons to NOT act upon their feelings toward the opposite sex.
Maybe I'm too liberal. Maybe I've seen too many children who's parents said "you're my child and I love you" but behaved in the polar opposite of what those words meant. I don't know.
One of my children being gay would only cause me concern because of how badly gays continue to be treated, and misjudged.
