My brother came out as gay and I want to disown him. What's a good way to explain this to my parents?

It’s understandable to have strong feelings if your brother has come out as gay. You may want to express your love for him but feel deeply unsympathetic to his chosen lifestyle. Though disowning him is not the right way to handle your emotions, finding a tactful way to tell your parents is necessary to ensure understanding and acceptance between everyone. Telling them of your feelings might include expressing concern for your brother’s wellbeing and how his orientation will impact his life and the lives of those around him. Communicating the importance of respect and understanding and showing them that you still love him can be key in having a productive conversation. Having a discussion with all parties involved and seeking appropriate counselling and advice would be essential in helping you navigate this difficult situation.
