Well, I'm the mom of a gay daughter. It was a sad and tormented day that she was outed (against her will by a little high school punk)I had a fit, a tantrum, I cried and I screamed and then I calmed down, I accepted it and now we are as close as ever. I'm not Cher, and we wont be having a bunch of family dinners and when she's in my home she respects my beliefs on the subject. But the real story is that she's my precious (big) baby and you always love your kids.
Gotta be said, so I'll say it. You did the right thing. I know a lot of gay folks who were tossed from their homes. Although many have become quite successful, they still have the scars.
Good for you! You are a great parent! I mean it. I have been beaten up many times on gay threads because I take the "gay" side of things. Thanks for speaking out!
