My daughter who is now 11 decided a year ago let us know that she doesn't have an interest in boys.  She told me while I was at work and she  thought I was going to be mad.  Someone had told her that if she came out to us that we would kick her out of home.  

After expressing the way she felt she asked if we wanted her to pack her things and to call her nanna to come and get her.  We told her she can love whom ever she wants to as long as they show her the same love and respect back.  Both my husband and I have friends that date or are married to the same sex, so I don't know who put it in her head that we would not be accepting of her.
