If you were a parent, and your child was gay, what would you do? Be honest, I won't hold anything against you. These responces are always interesting.Personally, I would be disappointed, but I wouldn't love them any less than ever before..Now you guys go...

^^^ (to adam) Umm there Gay and Im a muslim come on now thats much harder for me casue they just did something wrong that they should have never done is turn gay casue Allah said only Men can marry a women not Men and Men or Women and Women only Men and Women which is the right thing. But like I said I just would go crazy.
I would put him in a mental home. With help, a therapist. Being gay is almost a trend these days, you never know how your child will turn out
guys, you cant change someone if there gay..either there gay, or there not..its not something that you can just change with pshychiatrick help..you think that its a "trend"? thats the biggest crock i've ever heard in my life...
It's a result of the environment they grow up in, and if they were my child then they wouldn't be gay, I can guarantee that.

Think about it if you only had one kid.You'll never be a grandparent...that's probilly the coolest thing to be.
Well, to begin with - I don't think you can be born gay. I think it's simply based on how you are raised, and that comes hand in hand with the environment that the person is placed in. As soon as I do have a kid, I would make it a point to teach religion - put him in religous groups, and etc. My religon doesn't allow homosexuality, just like Christianity, and Judaism - so taht would automatically be a big help in stopping a child from even thinking about turning gay.Also, I do agree that some kids try to be adventourous and make this whole gay thing a trent - just because they see it and hear it a lot. If my child, after all my efforts to stop any ideas of homosexuality, did in fact turn gay, I would be very angry inside, but I wouldn't go insane on them. I would sit down and tell them how I do not accept this, and neither does your religon. I would not stop telling them that I can't accept this, and if they wish to continue being gay, thanthey would have to leave the family. Simply as that.

It isn't the same concept, because a man + a woman = a childEspecially Christian kids? That's too ridiculous to comment onIt is like a trend, because there are far more gay people now then there were 50 years ago. I wouldn't want to kick my child out, but I would find it much harder to love him/her. To me it's a sin, and if my child did something like murder someone then I would find it harder to love them then also, it's the same idea.
