well, i think anybodys family would be blown away if they found out that a family member of theirs is gay. but that shouldnt matter, even if they are strong christians. you can tell them straight up that if they dont like it, they got to deal with it, its who he is. and if your comfortable with it, thats what matters, right? your son does need you regardless with what kids may think sometimes. even if i am still a kiddo myself. and if your other family memebers dont accept it, they wont lose their love for him ( at least i hope they wouldnt )so, good luck!

dont worry about your family, i am from a strong christian family also, but i dont think,God makes mistakes. he gives us strength, and wisdom to understand and accept. bieng gay will send no one to hell.it all depends on ,just like anyone, on their hearts and love for God.just be very matter- of- fact during the holidays. your family may already know. if they are Christians, and love your son, there is nothing to worry about. if they do have a problem its theirs . dont let it ruin your holidays. true christians will embrace him. if they dont, they are playing God because only God can judge. smile, have a great holiday and #####if they have have a problem too bad. dont mean to sound mean, but our sons come first

I had the same problem because I just learned this year that my 35 years old son is gay, most of my family knows now except some members like my father I know for him it will be hard so I decided no telling now, I know my son will come with a friend that's it!. And the rest they will figure it up and if they don't like it... it's their own problem, you know it took me a while but them I realized that I never "open the door" of anybody's room to see their private lives so I am in no right to be talking about my son's Private One!, he is such a wonderful person, he loves his family and cares about everybody, he is who he is and I love him, I am proud of him ! remember his Private Life doesn't have to be motive of any discussion. My son didn't change and it was hard for me to understand it...but now I know that he is still the same. Remember this time of the year is to enjoy family and without him for sure it will never be the same

You know I am quickly learning that this is oh so difficult. My gh said to me..."you know I am the same person I was a week ago, it's just that now you and your family no a secret". Also God forgives our sins, and in my case my husband cheated and decieved me for a long time, but I can forgive because of my beliefs. Take care and good luck.
