I just found out through my son's myspace page that he is gay.I am surprised.I still love him and always will.I just wish he would have told me himself.I feel all kinds of emtions andhave so many questions going through my head.Maybe he thought I would be ashamed of him or something.That isn't the case.I just wonder where I went wrong as a parent and all kinds of things.Is it my fault?I'm brokenhearted.I really don't know how to handle it but maybe it's because it's still new to me.

It is not your fault. No one \"chooses\" to be gay. (In my opinion anyway.) To me that is saying I choose to be Bipolar.. It just happens. My kids are young, 10 and 8 and I already tell them if they are gay, I will still love them.
I know it is easy for me to think what emotions you are going though, but I cannot... Hugs and I hope all works out for you and your son..
it is not your fault, he is what he is, but he could have told you but maybe he was nervous or afraid to say, it is a big deal to someone to have to tell their family and friends. it is not parenting, its the way someone is
