If I had a kid and they came out as gay, I honestly wouldn't oppose it. there's a very good chance that they were groomed to be such by their teachers, but I would only work to keep them out of trouble and make sure they are not in danger from any adults. Why? because being gay doesn't have to be permanent. If they realize as they're growing up that they aren't actually gay, all they have to do is realign their life priorities and they can figure out their own lives. If they do end up being gay through adulthood, it's their lives and their choice.

Now if my kid came to me one day and said they were trans, even if they did have a history of behaviors more common with the opposite sex, I would immediately be pushing back. I likely would be the only adult in the world to do so, so it would need to be me. I would start with asking them why. Just "why do you feel this way?" just to present the possibility that they don't have to go down this route. If they're just repeating what they're grooming teachers told them to say, or if being trans is not what they truly want deep down, this question alone should get them to relent. if they insist, I would then talk to them about the permanent changes they would be making to their body. How puberty blockers are the same chemical castration techniques used to castrate gay people in the 1900s, and how Alan Turing committed suicide after he was prescribed those drugs. how estrogen/testosterone have serious health side effects that no one is telling them about, including increased risk for cancer for testosterone or loss of bone density for estrogen. How a surgery to remove certain body parts can never be undone.

No child of mine will ever have a sex change surgery, go on puberty blockers, or take hormones of the opposite sex. if, come adulthood, they still feel they are trans, It is their prerogative to do whatever they want with their bodies and I cannot stop them. I would always love my child, no matter what they do, but I would always work to steer them away from a life of degeneracy, drug dependence, and delusion.
