I’m a gay single child and my parents want grandchildren

[karmic moss]

Plez help, I’m a 13 gay guy and all my parents have ever wanted are grandchildren. Obviously because I love men, in the future I will never have them and because I’m a single child, I’m not sure if they’ll support me. I have a lesbian aunt and a gay cousin, who they are very supportive of, and they love lgbt media like heartstopper.

When I mentioned getting my ears pierced, they said it’s gay and would look bad on a boy, which makes me fell kinda hopeless, and am unsure what to do, thank you. (It wouldn’t let me edit the first message weirdly ;])

When ur an adult, I recommend surrogacy

You don't owe your parents any grandchildren. If you want children later, you could adopt them. But no parent should have children just because they want grandchildren, this would make them rather selfish parents. And since you're 13, you still have plenty of time to think about stuff like that. Don't worry about relationships or grandchildren yet, just enjoy your life and do what makes you happy :)

They didn’t have me just for that, they love me unconditionally but it has always been their dream to have grandchildren, and as I have really bad anxiety, I’m just unsure if they’ll support me and adding up a bunch of mini factors into a big crappy problem. before I realised I was queer, I always told them I would have them, but thanks so much for the advice :D

If anything you can look to adoption or sperm donation in the future!

Hey trust me ur not the only one
I’m 14 and I still haven’t told my parents nor grandparents about me being trans (female to male) and being gay on top of that so I can relate to you

But all I have to say is live your best life for now

I need to remind you that not everywhere, surrogacy is legal, ofc it depends, where OP lives. I live in Lithuania, as bisexual and my mom wants the grandchildren too, but she doesn't know that I am bi. and in general there is little legalization of surrogacy in the world

Yeah, I’m in the uk, which kinda allows surrogacy, but idk how to rlly put it, which is good, and I hope you figure something out as it is banned in your area :}
