Abstract

The purpose of this study was to understand how parents who identify as Christian responded to and coped with their child's disclosure of same-sex sexuality and/or having a lesbian, gay, or bisexual identity (LGB). Research has shown the effect parental responses can have on the psychological health of sexual minorities, as well as the emotions Christian parents may experience post disclosure. Little research highlights the struggle Christian parents can experience due to tension between their religious beliefs and the love they have for their child. This study highlights a unique aspect of how parents attempt to negotiate this tension.
