‘You’re my daughter, and I love you, and I just want you to be happy.’”

A wonderful, warm and intelligent response. Compare with Randall Terry, the hero of the radical right. Per Terry:

Jamiel is "bringing great sadness to our home and embarrassment to our family."

Good memory, M. I'd forgotten about him.

More like "hero of the moonbat fringe of the right".

Jamiel is "bringing great sadness to our home and embarrassment to our family."

That quote from Randall Terry about his homosexual son Jamiel was taken from this interview:

http://www.beliefnet.com/story/144/story_14449_3.html

It's clear that the sadness and embarrassment aren't just from Jamiel's "being gay," but from the fact that Jamiel sold an interview to Out Magazine which included pictues of the Terry family. Randall experienced this as a betrayal of trust and an invasion of privacy, carried out by Jamiel because Out Magazine paid him a significant amount of money.

Terry's response is more understandable, and more normal. That is, if your child becomes a vocal, in-everyone's-face, promote-immorality activist.
