Can we have a new topic?

We have just discovered that DS1 is gay.

It has, not surprisingly, come as a bit of a shock.

MNetters have already been really supportive/helpful, but it would be fanastic if there was a specific thread for those of us who are parents of gay children.

There's a parents thread, but that's a bit different from the needs of parents who are not gay but who have children who are.

Please? Go easy - it's a difficult time [confused}

makes you ask, why isn't there one already....

mummylin2495 · 24/09/2010 13:05

i also would think this would be a great topic

IMoveTheStars · 24/09/2010 13:09

Great idea BIWI

CaptainNancy · 24/09/2010 13:23

I think lots of people would find it useful- I'm not gay but I find the gap parents board edifying.

CaptainNancy · 24/09/2010 13:23

that would be gay parents obviously...

BecauseImWorthIt · 24/09/2010 13:36

Mind you, I'm liking the idea of gap parenting ...

CaptainNancy · 24/09/2010 14:03

Hi there, we'll point someone in editorial this way... the editors manage the topic lists. We techs just do as told Wink

OracleInaCoracle · 28/09/2010 15:26

great idea!

JustineMumsnet · 28/09/2010 15:36

Sure thing. Does LGBT children in Being a Parent category sound good?

BecauseImWorthIt · 28/09/2010 18:17

Sounds great, Justine.

Thank you.

Now. If you could just come round and chivvy DS1 along re his UCAS form and personal statement I'd be really grateful.
