16 Parents Of LGBTQ+ Kids That Restore Our Faith In Humanity
Because your child is more than just about their sexuality.
These parents handled their children’s coming out like a boss. Like most kids expect their parents would hug and cry with them, telling them how gorgeous and handsome they are despite whoever they love. Then there’s that dad who just sighs in relief that their kid isn’t asking for money.
It was National Coming Out Day (NCOD) on October 11 where people gather their courage to tell their loved ones about their true selves. Or perhaps you still need more time, and it’s fine! It doesn’t have to be October 11, it can be anytime when you feel safe and strong enough.
1. Phew, so you don’t need extra money, right?
2. “I already know.”
@tyshonlawrence I just came out to my mom and this happened. @littlemamalittle original sound – Amy Hayward
3. “Something tangible… to always remind you that we love you.”
4. There is no “right away,” but preferably not one that costs money.
5. A heart-to-heart talk between a father and his son.
