Your child tells you their gay

HARRY: "I don't like the idea of her dating." You rolled your eyes at him. "She's 16 Harry. You and I both were off going on dates with plenty of people when we were her age." He nodded his head. "But that's my baby. I don't want any boys drooling all over her. I don't care how old she is." You laughed and shook your head. Just as he finished his complaining, in walked Darcy and her date. Yours and Harry's eyes nearly popped out of your head when you realized it wasn't a boy stealing your daughter's heart, but a girl.

NIALL: "I just...don't know how to tell dad." Your son Michael had just came out of the closet. Well, to you anyway. You were shocked. He was 17 years old, and captain of the school's football team. He seemed like the total jock, and even had been in a two year relationship with one of the most popular girls in school. Just as your son got through telling you, Niall walked in the room. You could tell he was just as shocked as you were. "I'm sorry," your son mumbled, hiding his face in his hands. Niall came to his side, patting his back reassuringly. "Ah, don't be. I just can't believe you thought I'd love you any less."

ZAYN: Your husband wasn't exactly pleased when your son had broke the news to you. Zayn started yelling, claiming he had no idea what he was talking about. "You're only 13 Jamie! How would you even know what you want?!" He looked at his father with tears in his eyes, and a hurt expression on his face. "Because I enjoy kissing boys, not girls." Zayn stopped talking and took a seat. He was shocked both because his son was in fact gay, and because he seemed so...manly. "Jamie, ah shit, I'm sorry bud. I just, I didn't really think-" "It's okay dad."

LOUIS: "Why are you so weirded out by this? There's nothing wrong with being in love, no matter who it may be with." You and your husband have just discovered that your 15 year old daughter had a girlfriend. Although it shocked you just as much as it shocked him, he didn't know how to accept it. "It's not the fact she's in love with a girl, it's just...when I was younger I used to find lesbians hot. I don't want any boys thinking that way of her!" You let out a laugh. "It's not funny! It's serious!" You shook your head. "I just find it funny that she has no interest in guys whatsoever, yet you're still worried about the way they look at her!"

LIAM: You and Liam had always thought Nick was a little different than most boys his age. So when he told the two of you he was gay, you weren't shocked at all. Actually, you were actually quite relieved."Wait..so you guys knew?" You and your husband nodded your heads. "Nick, you're not exactly good at hiding things from us. From anyone really." You nodded in agreement with Liam. "So you guys aren't mad?" You shook your head. "As long as you're happy with yourself, then we're happy."
