Gay Parenting Support Group

I have been pondering this post and don't really have an answer. Do you mind if I bring it up at "game night" with my mixture of gay and straight friends and see what they say?

Truthgully I think it happens no more than in straight families however, it in my opinion may be more visible because the GLBT parents are 1000 times more understanding and open to talk and/or support the GLBT children in their experiments and future lifestyles. Make sense?

I have three children G(20) is straight; G(16) states that she is bi, but prefers boys and my B(14) is gay. I have known he was gay since he was very little. I alos have a straight friend at work and she tells me that I am the first gay parent she knows that has gay child(ren) also. I don't think this answers the question well, but I tend to agree with FyreRayne, GLBT parents a more open.

yes yes, that's quite common my friend whos gay aswell as me his little bother is gay and so is there youngest brother:) qquite comon

maybe we just notice it more? Not too sure about that, but it could be the case as my aunt is gay, I am gay and my 18yr old son is gay...but I do have straight kids too lol so maybe a load of tosh!

My 2 older sons are straight. My youngest son says he thinks he's bi. As a lesbian mom, I don't care what orientation they are, so long as they become happy and safe young adults in their relationships.

I agree with those who have said it's probably not more prevalent, but simply that we gay/lesbian/bi parents are more open and encouraging of our children's true identieis.

My two cents, for what it's worth.

Namaste, Trish

I think its more common than I thought thanks to this group. I have three children two of whom are gay.
I think its the luck of the draw when they are concevied. They are who they are. No descions no choices just how they feel. Its just the make up. My children all three are very smart and honor students. Just one is straight LOL
Their father and I both straight. Who knows.. Just love them the way they are.

i have no clue. Im gay and so is my oldest sister. My aunt and her daugher are also gay. My daughter is only 9 months n ppl tell me all the time (in a jokeing way) that she seems gay lol.

I once worked for a company owned by three gay brothers born to straight parents. Hmmmm I think there is a case study there somewhere! lol

If my children ever tell me they are gay, They will have 100% acceptance from me.
