not probably, he was the best father,, When Kurt's bully, Karofsky came out to his parents his mum said he had a disease and his parents and friends practically abandoned him,, Kurt and the others forgave Karofsky for the shit that went down and were there for him to be who he was / wanted to be.
Bree Turnock Yeah... I felt so bad for Dave (Karofsky) and Santana. Sure they were bullies but it didn't mean they deserved to be disowned by these they cared the most about. At least Dave's dad was accepting (and probably Santana's parents).
Neil Brown you realize that burt used to call gays faggy and stuff. You shouldnt think every highschool bully (KID) will grow out to be a bad person, people learn from MISTAKES
No doubt in my mind he was the best. He was funny and open and stood by his son and others with pride. He was an Everyman, simple and quiet and hardworking. He was a mans man who fully accepted who his son was and stood up for him. While he did admit to using the same words that people used on Kurt when he was younger, he grew to learn just how much those word choices can hurt someone and being the father of a glee member, fully opened himself up to all diversity with open arms.
And perfect; obviously an older school dad like Burt isn’t going to have an ideal reaction to his kid coming out, but through his own biases and upbringing, he’s able to do one key thing all parents should do: just love your child. That’s all they want.
I love Burt so much. Even though he admits he's not totally happy about Kurt being gay, he isn't afraid to accept his son for who he is and shows again and again throughout the series that he has his back no matter what. This is, I think, the very definition of great parenting. A great mother or father doesn't have to be person or always say exactly the right thing. But a great parent will always support their child and be there to help guide them no matter what. Burt is just a great dad.
OkamsRazer when he said he wasn't totally happy with it I thought it was because he wouldn't be able to share the same love of women and do things fathers and sons do cause Kurt was more feminine. But I loved their relationship.
Yes. I love this whole scene, Burt is an awesome parent for many reasons, I love his acceptance of Kurt and the way he says he wishes Kurt's mom could have been at the football game but then clarifies that he meant alive, meaning that he believes she was there in spirit and that he wants Kurt to know that and believe it too.
My favourite moment when Burt defends Kurt is actually in front of Finn. When they are having difficulty dealing with the brother dynamic and they have a fight that Finn regrets what he says in the heat of the moment.
im glad Kurt felt comfortable coming out to his dad, most kids live in silence and suffer internally which can lead to depression, anger issues or even suicide. If ever parents reacted like Bert we would all be better people.
You can love someone and not love how they choose to live there lives( yes some people deny this part of themselves and go on to be in a happy and loving heterosexual relationship) Amd I don’t mean love like some people who are awkward and distant I mean you can truly love someone and care for them the way Burt does Kurt and still not be happy about it. But they are family and you love them and always will. I often wonder how o would react if someone I knew came out. I hope I could truly love them and be kind, but still be honest.
CDG I have done what you wanted and I have compared the 2 of them and I now know exactly what’s different from them both, but I’m not really gonna tell you exactly what that is because now I want you to do that exact same research that I have done so that way you will know exactly what I know now
Cole Aufdenkamp Jus to be honest here I jus wanted to know if everyone already knew that and thank you for letting me know that, but did you see my comment within the Santana vid with Abuela and what I said was is um you know what Santana said in that vid like before that vid came to the end of that vid and what Santana said in that vid is how I am feeling from inside of me
I love how realistic the acceptance is. He’s kind of hesitant but he doesn’t let his own history/ideals affect his sons future. Real acceptance is maybe not understanding, but letting someone be who they are
Burt and Kurt have only each other to depend on so it's great to see Kurt out and proud. Kurt was able to help Kowalski out when his father disowned him and his mother vowed to "cure" him of being gay. I bet that's the happiest that Kowalski's ever been.
@@peterwilliamskelhorn6675 That's great to hear. Too many people who are gay don't come out the way Kurt came out to Burt because they're too scared of what the outcome might be.
Because too many sicko parents throw their kids out for being gay. When a parent does that it means they never loved their child. A parent doesnt have to approve of their childs sexuality but if they truly love their children they wont throw them out of the house or try and make them change their sexuality. My mum doesnt approve of homosexuality but she doesnt hate me for being bi
That is the normal, but what sort of story would that be. The dramatic non acceptance happens for 1000 reasons including being gay, or not being what their parents want them to be.
People dissing Chris Colfer. He is a multi award winning actor with a vocal range bigger than your future, played one of the first openly gay teenagers on television and did it perfectly, is a #1 New York Times best selling author with a net worth of over $8,000,000 all at the age of just 27, while you're there, sat at your computer with nothing better to do then to hate on people. I think it's fair to say who the winner is
when i have kids , IF i have kids, they will have no pressure . I know how it feels to be really guilty and it kills me. i will let them know its ok to tell me ANYTHING and i will not be mad at them :] I believe everyone should be as accepting as his father , you like who you like and nobody can stop that not even you .
I think Burt is so underrated because I feel like he’s a more accurate representation of parents. I actually love that at first he didn’t want Kurt to be gay and kind of was in denial all those years but he really worked on his mindset for his son. That’s love. He didn’t with it agree at first, but he worked hard and came around. He shows that just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean you can’t love your child enough to at least try.
The world is quite simple, actually. I don't understand why people have to complicate everything. There' s nothing wrong about being gay. As long as we don't do any harm to anybody, God just wants us to be happy. Don ' t be embarrassed at what you're are!
My mom's still in denial and my dad would kick me out if he knew. But Kurt always really inspired me growing up, and I get a lot of strength from all these gay Glee characters that went through so many different results. Kurt will always have a special place in my heart for getting me to hope for the future, and Santana helps me to remember that despite life's rockiness, I am able to rise above challenges and stay true to myself by using my wit. I don't know where I'm going with this but I just feel really grateful for the representation I got relatively easily compared to previous generations. I can't imagine what that would've been like, and it means a lot that we now have their efforts softening the blow.
I remember when I came out. I started with my mom and I cried. I fucking love my mom. She just answered "why are you crying? I'm not mad at you" like I was so scared before u said that
haha i love seeing supernatural fans every where ;D Supernatural is my life it lights up my world in my darkess times and always puts a smile on my face , especially when cas sleeps its like really adorable ;)
I love how he says “that’s just how you are”, because considering so many people see it as a “disease” or something you can “change”, this is just a big statement that shows, being LGBT is part of you. It’s not something changeable or something you can turn on or off. But being LGBT is not JUST you. Burt sees Kurt not just for his sexuality but also as his SON, a BOY, a KID, a KIND person, etc.
glad i cam out..less stress. Also parents knew a long time ago and proud of them too. In fact i was lucky to not lose any family or friends. Now i got many to take out to my events and they enjoy the fun stuff we do and help support the community.
For younger kids watching this now this scene may not seem like a big deal. I think it's important to remember how different things were a decade ago and how far things have (and haven't) come. This scene right here changed lives.
he literally did all the right the things: said his true feelings/when he knew, said he still loved the same, knows he can't change it and THANKS him for telling him, which is huge
I love Burt so much, because while it's clear he's not fully comfortable with the idea of his son being gay at this point, he still accepts him. He pushes away his own discomfort because he loves Kurt and knows that this is what he needs. And with time he fully comes around, because he wants to be the person his son can depend on. Being a good parent isn't about having no flaws whatsoever, it's about working to overcome them for your children and that's exactly what Burt does
just by the look on burt’s face when kurt was building up to saying it, he knew what was happening and you can just tell how long he’s been waiting for kurt to come out to him. i adore burt so much😌
when i first watched it i literally thought 'kurt don't do it why are you telling him it's only gonna be worse' and then burt turned out to be the greatest dad ever. best plot twist
The scene makes me laugh & teary at the same time, lol. When my daughter came out to me she was 14 and I knew since she was 6 when in girl scouts she had a friend they were always hugging and kissing (innocently) on each other, you knew it was a first crush. When she told me I was thinking, "no kidding," lol. I think a lot of parents know (whether they wanna admit it to themselves or not).
I like how everything is different here comparing it to when Santana comes out and not only the situation, the whole place, when Santana comes out her abuela's house has warm colors, here is gray and white, they are in opposite directions (santana is on the right while her abuela is on the left, here Kurt is on the left and Burt on the right) when they scene ends Santana's abuela goes to the left and Burt goes to the right. Here Kurt and Burt are standing and Santana was sitted with her abuela. This was very well done
these two work well together as father and son because they don't want to lose each other no matter what. considering that Kurt's mother apparently played a big part in both of their lives before she died, it's understandable that they would have this kind of relationship; somewhat estranged, but willing to pull together to make it work. the father especially might see his son's coming out as a sign of bravery, coupled with his football participation, indicating that they're going down a good path together. while this is an ideal representation of what coming out to parents might be, not every case is going to be the same. the parents will either accept or shun you (as in the case of Santana and her grandmother); but it's all about perspective, gaining an objective informed view of the situation before making a total snap judgment, which, as far as I know, is a big part of the family dynamic when dealing with these scenarios.
You're sure right? Yeah dad I'm sure. I'm just checking. One of the cutest convo between dad and son. It's literally one of the best scene I've watched on glee. It's hard to confess our true sexuality especially to our father..
I love this scene so much, his dad tells him that he's not all that happy about it, but accepts Kurt for who he is and still loves him. That brings relief to so many people knowing they are still loved, but now even accepted by their parents
Actually I think Chris is really talent as well as lucky All of his partners in Glee really explored chemistry with him, every relationships between him and others feels so true and real (Lover with Blaine, Father-son with Burt, best friends with Rachel, and brothers with Finn)
We have 3 different types of family coming out reactions in Glee. Acceptance, Illness, and Religious. Burt full on accepted Kurt and has no problems with Kurt being who he is. Santana's mom also is that way. Yet Santana's grandmother isn't okay with the idea because it is a sin for man to be in bed with man same for women. (;-;) Then we have Dave.. Dave gets kicked out of the closest and his mom treats it like an illness.. Saying stuff like "it's treatable" and stuff. Glee deals with so many issues and deals with most of the reactions. Homophobia, Racism, Bullying, Transgender people, Cheating, Divorce, Death, Fat shaming, School shooting, judging by looks, teen pregnancies and more.. Glee is great 👌
TH-cam just recommended this to me. I remember watching this season so many years ago with my gf. Nice arc, and not about Burt accepting Kurt but Kurt accepting himself.
This was one of the best scenes in the whole series. 1:11 , 1:18 and 1:48 I love Kurt and Burt. They didn’t seem very close until right here, but from here on they have each other’s backs no matter what. Burt is an amazing and loving father. He wasn’t so accepting in his youth, but his unconditional love for his son made him an even better man. And as for Kurt, I love how confident and brave he is from here on. Chris basically came out at the same time as his character. I’m so proud of him. He deserves love and happiness more than many others.
Burt says he knew since Kurt was three and wanted sensible pair of heels, but anyone notice how when Kurt's getting his graduation present Burt says he started losing (I think that's the word he used) Kurt when he was around eight or nine?
He and Kurt didn't have many common interests and Burt didn't really know how to talk to him. Plus Kurt was afraid to admit he was gay and didn't confide in Burt.
Before I came to terms with being gay, this scene made me cry so hard, and I was confused as to why it did until it dawned on me that my feelings werent going to change and that I, too, was craving the acceotance that Burt gabe Kurt. This scene and Kurt's general representation was really important in my navigating of my sexuality, UGH, bless these characters
This reminds me of when I told my parents I’m bisexual... I waited till November of my freshman year of college (the 2018-2019 year) to tell them... I called both of them separately while I was at school and told them... I was crying into the phone because I didn’t know how they would react and they told me that they are okay with it and they love me just the same... my mom even said and have been saying this for years asking “are you a lesbian, it’s okay if you are you know your uncle my brother and two of your cousins are gay” in the nicest tone ever, and I kept denying that I was and I finally told her I’m bisexual... I told my friends when I was out to lunch with them I have yet to tell everyone else... only a select few know like I said my parents and my close friends but also my brother and nana they know... the aunt that I’m most close with doesn’t even know... I keep meaning to tell her but I never do... I was a little on edge about telling my almost 86 year old nana (who still lives with us) because she’s a traditional old Italian woman and would whoop your ass, chasing you around the house with the slipper, the wooden spoon, a frying pan or throw things, like a thin tin mixing bowl or the tv remote a dog bone, dog toy, whatever she could get her hands on at the time if you were being a little shit and being a smart ass... but she knows that two of my cousins and my uncle are gay so she has no problem with it... some of my friends are gay and bisexual as well as trans queer etc. and each and every one of them love me still...
I love this so much. As a parent I wouldn't be in love with it either, only bc I feel like as a parent you'd want your kid to have the safest, easiest life. I'd just be scared for my kid bc people can be cruel, being gay itself I wouldn't care. Only thing that would truly upset me would be if my kid felt scared to tell me or thought for a second that I wouldn't accept them. I hope to create an environment where they don't feel the need to come out, and just tells me "hey this is the person I'm seeing"
Burt was probably one of the best TV father ever
not probably, he was the best father,, When Kurt's bully, Karofsky came out to his parents his mum said he had a disease and his parents and friends practically abandoned him,, Kurt and the others forgave Karofsky for the shit that went down and were there for him to be who he was / wanted to be.

jkrfan7 right up there with Sandy Cohen and Sherriff Stalinski for sure
Burt: "You're sure, right?"
Kurt: "Yes, dad, I'm sure"
Burt: "I'm just checking"
So funny
I think I choked on my spit🤣❤
And perfect; obviously an older school dad like Burt isn’t going to have an ideal reaction to his kid coming out, but through his own biases and upbringing, he’s able to do one key thing all parents should do: just love your child. That’s all they want.
And when I like I know since your were three and wanted high heels I knew
I would had done that as well 🤣

If only all parents with gay child/ children were as accepting as Burt.

***** I wished they were

***** I know. I have a friend who is too scared to come out to her parents because they are super homophobic. It's terrible

A lot of times, acceptance means opening yourself up to the idea of learning more about something you're unsure of
Best father-son relationship ever. This scene made me cry so hARD
Burt and Kurt have only each other to depend on so it's great to see Kurt out and proud. Kurt was able to help Kowalski out when his father disowned him and his mother vowed to "cure" him of being gay. I bet that's the happiest that Kowalski's ever been.

Preach !!! Lol
I feel personally attacked lol
A bigger vocal range than your future is the most hilarious comparison I've ever seen probably🤣
Damn straight! I'm so proud of him. I feel like we watched him grow up on TV.
I like that Burt wasn't overally accepting and he was honest. He wasn't totally in love with it, but he accepts Kurt for who he is.
In my opinion, Burt had some of the best Character development.
I feel like he was a great character from the start
@@JJRodriguez-vu2yf he really was, just kinda grew into it a little.
No, he was always the perfect dad.

Kurt is literally one of the most adorable human beings ever.
Still one of my most fav scenes in the show. Love the dynamic between these two!
+madisont Looking back on when I watched Glee, the only really good parts were a) people being batshit crazy and b) Kurt & Burt.
I love Kurt's shocked look when Burt says: I know. XD!
The DID System of A he was like WTF
Of all the anger this show put me through, I'm happy it existed to give us the best tv dad: Burt.
when i have kids , IF i have kids, they will have no pressure . I know how it feels to be really guilty and it kills me. i will let them know its ok to tell me ANYTHING and i will not be mad at them :] I believe everyone should be as accepting as his father , you like who you like and nobody can stop that not even you .

Kurt's dad is the best!😆👏
I remember when I came out. I started with my mom and I cried. I fucking love my mom. She just answered "why are you crying? I'm not mad at you" like I was so scared before u said that

I laugh when Burt says “I know” more because it’s more like “WE ALL KNOW KURT, but thanks for trusting me”
Burt: You sure?
Kurt: Yeah dad, I’m sure.
Burt: Just checking.
God I love the Hummel’s.
Burt is such a sweetie. He may seem all intimidating, and way too serious, but deep down, he cares a lot for his son and accepts him for who he is.
"You're sure right?"
"Yeah I'm sure."
lol 😂
i wish my dad could be like Burt...
Burt:” You’re sure right?”
Kurt:”Yes Dad Im sure.”
Burt:” Okay just checking”
Hilarious 😂
burt is one of the great heroes in all of Glee history, but never seems to get the recognition he deserves
Baby Kurt from season 1 and 2 was so cute! 😂 I love the character and the actor who played him!
Now that’s what you called a great father. Accept their kids for who they are and not trying to change them.
I love how he says “that’s just how you are”, because considering so many people see it as a “disease” or something you can “change”, this is just a big statement that shows, being LGBT is part of you. It’s not something changeable or something you can turn on or off.
But being LGBT is not JUST you. Burt sees Kurt not just for his sexuality but also as his SON, a BOY, a KID, a KIND person, etc.
They manage to make this heartwarming but also give us a good laugh at the same time
Such a great scene. Burt and Kurt’s relationship is the best relationship on the show, hands down. So glad they have each other.
"I've known since you were three. All you wanted for your birthday was a pair of sensible heels."
THAT LAID ME OUT COLD!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
kurt and his dad has the best arc on the entire show and no one can tell me otherwise
Unconditional love is the very definition of being a good parent.
I'm so proud that Kurt's dad appreciates him for who he is! I wish every dad was like Burt
glad i cam out..less stress. Also parents knew a long time ago and proud of them too. In fact i was lucky to not lose any family or friends. Now i got many to take out to my events and they enjoy the fun stuff we do and help support the community.
I don’t know why there can’t be fathers like Burt. He’s the best dad on tv
Best scene EVER!
No matter how many times I watch this, I'm still so grateful for understanding parents.
For younger kids watching this now this scene may not seem like a big deal. I think it's important to remember how different things were a decade ago and how far things have (and haven't) come. This scene right here changed lives.

Burt is honestly THE best TV dad

'If that's who you are , there's nothing I can do about it' the words of a wise wise man
I completely broke down when he said "but i love you just as much" we all need a dad like burt
Burt was such a good character. He taught me a lot about being a father before I was one.
"I've known since you were three" hilarious!!
Burt is fucking Awesomesauce!! And that hug! the relief!
This is why he was my favorite character. Almost a decade later and this is the scene I remember the most because it was that meaningful and powerful.
just by the look on burt’s face when kurt was building up to saying it, he knew what was happening and you can just tell how long he’s been waiting for kurt to come out to him. i adore burt so much😌
"Thanks for telling me" is a very important part of this. Even if you "always knew", they still valued you enough to say it to you.
Best dad ever i love how he reacts *-* kurt wuhu
when i first watched it i literally thought 'kurt don't do it why are you telling him it's only gonna be worse' and then burt turned out to be the greatest dad ever. best plot twist
The scene makes me laugh & teary at the same time, lol. When my daughter came out to me she was 14 and I knew since she was 6 when in girl scouts she had a friend they were always hugging and kissing (innocently) on each other, you knew it was a first crush. When she told me I was thinking, "no kidding," lol. I think a lot of parents know (whether they wanna admit it to themselves or not).
Always loved this scene.
This scene gave me the courage to come out to my dad and it basically went exactly like this. The hug. The “are you sure?” It just resonates so much
Aw burt love his son kurt so much this is emotional scene I love this scene so much
I like how everything is different here comparing it to when Santana comes out and not only the situation, the whole place, when Santana comes out her abuela's house has warm colors, here is gray and white, they are in opposite directions (santana is on the right while her abuela is on the left, here Kurt is on the left and Burt on the right) when they scene ends Santana's abuela goes to the left and Burt goes to the right. Here Kurt and Burt are standing and Santana was sitted with her abuela.
This was very well done
Burt is the best ❤️ I balled like a baby when he got sick
these two work well together as father and son because they don't want to lose each other no matter what. considering that Kurt's mother apparently played a big part in both of their lives before she died, it's understandable that they would have this kind of relationship; somewhat estranged, but willing to pull together to make it work. the father especially might see his son's coming out as a sign of bravery, coupled with his football participation, indicating that they're going down a good path together. while this is an ideal representation of what coming out to parents might be, not every case is going to be the same. the parents will either accept or shun you (as in the case of Santana and her grandmother); but it's all about perspective, gaining an objective informed view of the situation before making a total snap judgment, which, as far as I know, is a big part of the family dynamic when dealing with these scenarios.
You're sure right? Yeah dad I'm sure. I'm just checking. One of the cutest convo between dad and son. It's literally one of the best scene I've watched on glee. It's hard to confess our true sexuality especially to our father..
Burt’s acting here is phenomenal
I love this scene so much, his dad tells him that he's not all that happy about it, but accepts Kurt for who he is and still loves him. That brings relief to so many people knowing they are still loved, but now even accepted by their parents
Burt You make Cry..Lovely Dad..
Actually I think Chris is really talent as well as lucky
All of his partners in Glee really explored chemistry with him, every relationships between him and others feels so true and real
(Lover with Blaine, Father-son with Burt, best friends with Rachel, and brothers with Finn)
These two were amazing together. Best scenes of the entire series were with these two
We have 3 different types of family coming out reactions in Glee. Acceptance, Illness, and Religious. Burt full on accepted Kurt and has no problems with Kurt being who he is. Santana's mom also is that way. Yet Santana's grandmother isn't okay with the idea because it is a sin for man to be in bed with man same for women. (;-;) Then we have Dave.. Dave gets kicked out of the closest and his mom treats it like an illness.. Saying stuff like "it's treatable" and stuff. Glee deals with so many issues and deals with most of the reactions. Homophobia, Racism, Bullying, Transgender people, Cheating, Divorce, Death, Fat shaming, School shooting, judging by looks, teen pregnancies and more.. Glee is great 👌
TH-cam just recommended this to me. I remember watching this season so many years ago with my gf.
Nice arc, and not about Burt accepting Kurt but Kurt accepting himself.
‘I love you just as much’ Omg so precious
This was one of the best scenes in the whole series. 1:11 , 1:18 and 1:48 I love Kurt and Burt. They didn’t seem very close until right here, but from here on they have each other’s backs no matter what.
Burt is an amazing and loving father. He wasn’t so accepting in his youth, but his unconditional love for his son made him an even better man.
And as for Kurt, I love how confident and brave he is from here on. Chris basically came out at the same time as his character. I’m so proud of him. He deserves love and happiness more than many others.
Burt Hummel is a blessing and a treasure.
I love how though he doesn’t really understand it, he’s so respectful and honest. So much betters than other parents
Honestly the best father and son scene❤
Kurt’s dad is a freaking GEM!!!
We need more dads like Burt in the world
Their relationship is so beautiful ♥️
Burt says he knew since Kurt was three and wanted sensible pair of heels, but anyone notice how when Kurt's getting his graduation present Burt says he started losing (I think that's the word he used) Kurt when he was around eight or nine?
+Katie Hubbert he means that he still loved football when he was 3 bet started to drift away at 8
He and Kurt didn't have many common interests and Burt didn't really know how to talk to him. Plus Kurt was afraid to admit he was gay and didn't confide in Burt.
I thought they began to drift apart after his mother died, and thats why it was 8 of 9
This is so beautiful
such a important scene
*an
Just started watching Glee recently, it is a great show.
I'm not crying, you're crying 😭😭😭😭
Birth of a super-hero. Burt was one of the best character actors on the show.
Easily one of the show's best scenes. Sad to see how much its quality waned.
K but i LOVE that Burt admitted he had known for years but he never said anything to Kurt till KURT was ready. Like thats amazing
Before I came to terms with being gay, this scene made me cry so hard, and I was confused as to why it did until it dawned on me that my feelings werent going to change and that I, too, was craving the acceotance that Burt gabe Kurt. This scene and Kurt's general representation was really important in my navigating of my sexuality, UGH, bless these characters
WOW. What a powerful scene. Love it.
This reminds me of when I told my parents I’m bisexual... I waited till November of my freshman year of college (the 2018-2019 year) to tell them... I called both of them separately while I was at school and told them... I was crying into the phone because I didn’t know how they would react and they told me that they are okay with it and they love me just the same... my mom even said and have been saying this for years asking “are you a lesbian, it’s okay if you are you know your uncle my brother and two of your cousins are gay” in the nicest tone ever, and I kept denying that I was and I finally told her I’m bisexual... I told my friends when I was out to lunch with them I have yet to tell everyone else... only a select few know like I said my parents and my close friends but also my brother and nana they know... the aunt that I’m most close with doesn’t even know... I keep meaning to tell her but I never do... I was a little on edge about telling my almost 86 year old nana (who still lives with us) because she’s a traditional old Italian woman and would whoop your ass, chasing you around the house with the slipper, the wooden spoon, a frying pan or throw things, like a thin tin mixing bowl or the tv remote a dog bone, dog toy, whatever she could get her hands on at the time if you were being a little shit and being a smart ass... but she knows that two of my cousins and my uncle are gay so she has no problem with it... some of my friends are gay and bisexual as well as trans queer etc. and each and every one of them love me still...
What made me go in tears is that some parents don't have the same reactions as Burt did. and that sucks.
This was aired on my fifth birthday, I was born on one of the most memorable days in glee and lgbt+ history
I love this so much. As a parent I wouldn't be in love with it either, only bc I feel like as a parent you'd want your kid to have the safest, easiest life. I'd just be scared for my kid bc people can be cruel, being gay itself I wouldn't care. Only thing that would truly upset me would be if my kid felt scared to tell me or thought for a second that I wouldn't accept them. I hope to create an environment where they don't feel the need to come out, and just tells me "hey this is the person I'm seeing"
