I really don't know.
I would hope not.
I'm honest enough to admit that I wouldn't be comfortable with the idea.
But the child's happiness comes first. |

i would be devestated at the fact that people still are so closed minded and that my child would have to face some difficult situations because of these ignorant people. |

No, I'd be devastated if my son were gay and didn't feel comfortable with himself or didn't tell me. |

I would only be devestated if my son were dead or grew up to be a murderer. Other than that, if he's a happy, honest, caring person, I don't care who he loves. As long as he loves others. |

Not devastated, but perhaps selfishly disappointed that there would be no grandchildren and I'd also find difficulty in relating to their partner. |

As long as she felt comfortable to tell me and that she was truelly happy i would not mind. i would rather my daughter be happy loving a girl than misarable pretending to love a man. |

I'd be surprised, as I did not know I had any kids! But otherwise, no. Why should I be? I'd worry about choices they make, about whether they were happy, the same as I would if they were heterosexual, that's all! |

i don't have any kids but if i did it would be up to them and i would accept, why change who they are, as long as they are happy sexuality shouldn't matter. |

no,not devestated.it happened to me and as much as i would prefer it didnot, i was ecstatic to learn it was that and not a really devestating problem like health, for instance.we talk about all aspects of it openly and are both learning from each other.we have always been close and i cherish that.i love my daughter more than life itself and that will never change.and her friends are always welcome at my house.one more thing..you will find many people close to you have gay children and are posssibly afraid to open up to you.peace,good health and happiness to you. |

I would probably love them even more. (does the "was" imply that they are no longer?) |

What does this have to do with business or credit? |

No not at all.
I would need a little time to get used to the idea and I would have some concerns for my child but I would not be devastated.
I would be disappointed that I may not get grandchildren as a result but that is purely for selfish reasons.
I would also be concerned that my child would suffer abuse or hatred from other ignorant poeple.
Other than that I think my concerns would be the saem if my child were gay or straight. Are they happy, healthy, fullfilled etc. |

I would not be devastated at all. If that's what my child decided made him/her happy then that would be fine. I would be a bit upset that I may not have any grandchildren, but that wouldn't get in the way.
Children have enough to deal with these days without have misunderstanding parents to add to the pile. I would want to support my kids every step of the way, and would want them to know that I would be proud of them whatever sex they decide to date. |

Not for myself, but for the prejudice and bigotry that I know she'd inevitably be subjected to. However, in my mind, a person's home should always be a safe zone, and she always would, and always WILL, be free to be who she is in my home. Plus I don't believe in shunning people for being the way nature made them, and I do not have a prejudice against homosexuals.
My prejudice is against white trash. Seriously. |

Yes I would find it very difficult to the extent that I could not have any of his/her `friends' in my house |

Homosexualism is a state of mind not a state of birth so, you giving birth to your son/daughter from infancy to adulthood you should have instill in the child moral values, this is what is right , this is the way to go in life. All the holy books affirms this, a parent is to train his or her child in the proper way he/she is to go and when he/she grows it will be hard for him/her to leave this part even if he/she derails, it wont be long before he/she found his/her track back. As a matter of fact, In my own part of the world homosexual is a taboo from the traditional value of perspective and also from the legal perspective,it`s a crime,people go to jail when caught in this act.
So, I won`t wait or I should even say categorically that my child can and will never practice homosexuality (I believe it`s just a practice)because I would have instill discipline and the fear of God in them from infancy and they won`t go and do anything that will devastate my mind set. |
