My gay 16-year-old daughter is snarky and tough and she won't take crap from homophobes or anyone else.

But when she throws up twice in one night, she still wants dad to take care of her.

And that's the weird thing about parenting, you'll do it no matter their age. I'd pat the kid's back or hold her hair when she's sick when she's 45.

@huff Props for being a great dad. My parents were supportive when I came out, but I've had other gay friends who have gotten thrown out on their asses.

@guretsugu @huff I was so lucky when I came out as Bi. My family's response was luckily something along the lines of "And?"
