10. I Was Very Lucky.
Mom was a little upset (wondering where she "went wrong"), but gradually came around. Dad was totally cool with it. I'm very glad I came out when I did; Mom had a chance to make peace with the reality that her son was gay, and got to really know me, before she died in 2007.

When I hear horror stories like Thomcat's - or worse - it makes me shiver. I have ZERO interest in being a parent myself, but I just can't understand how anyone could turn their back on their own child.
