  • Hello John's mom! You are so amazing to do this!! I just lost my mom last month. (I know, it sounds like I took her to the mall and now can't find her...but it's just too soon to say the "d" word.) When I came out, a long time ago. my mom disowned me and we didn't have a relationship for a very long time. She didn't actually meet my man, the LOVE OF MY LIFE until just after we'd celebrated our 20th anniversary. Luckily we mended the fence and were able to move on. She knew I loved her.

  • I LOVE your mom! I wish i had parents like your's!!! My parents are raging homo-phobics and after i came out to them they disowned me, and i almost took my life because of it. And if anyone is thinking that it would be better to kill yourself because of being gay, lesbian, or bisexual then let me tell you something: Be who you are let people know and if they cant accept you then fuck them. Don't let them take you down. find people who do accept you and don't let go! it gets better.

  • Is it bad that I still love my mom, even though she's a homophobe? I mean, she didn't kick me out, she didn't abuse me or was an unfit mother. She didn't drink or smoke and when I needed help to make ends meet, she was there.

  • @AnotherDayOfThis When my mom disowned me after coming out I still loved her. That was the hard part. I still had all of the memories of the good times, before I came out. That doesn't mean that I had to like her treatment of me (she rid our house of all traces of me and denied my existence), or accept any abuse. She eventually came around but it took a long time. Eventually I stopped trying and let her deal with it. I fell in love & made a life for myself apart from my family. Be strong!

  • @suvariboy Awww. I will try! You're sweet and I wish you well.

  • I love this! Your mother is a prime example of the attitude everyone should have about their kids. This is your flesh and blood...it should be without condition.

  • she sound like she's from New York! haha! I'm from Toronto.... oh and you rock too! lollz

  • gee can she adopt me? hahahaha she is a legend :)

  • hey john i dont know how to tell my dad about me coming and i had told him that i was and then a couple month later i told him i was straight and now i know that im defently gay and i want to tell hi and i know he wont accept me so how do i make him accept plz give an answer

  • Did... did she just compare being homosexual to Down syndrome?

    aside from that one line, wonderful woman. Wonderful person.

  • @ArtemisThaetue Why is that a bad comparison? You are born that way in both cases!

  • John! your mother is such a lovely woman! :O

  • Your mother is absolutely amazing, She's the cutest thing on the planet.

  • Your mother, is by far one of the loveliest people I have ever had the pleasure to listen to.

  • I love her!

  • Never commented on your videos before, seen some of them but this time I felt I'd do it. There's someone who commented that you've got a kickass mother... I disagree!She's not a kickass momther, she's a kickass human being! She's not talking about how a parent should react, she's talking how any person should look at life. Live and let live. Anyway, take care!:)

  • wow... my coming out story is so much harder to tell...

    i had called bobby and told him to come over and that i wanted to talk to him...

    he came over... he came into my room and saw that i was crying...

    he knelt down and hugged me and whispered words of encouragement...

    and 2 hours later... i walked out of my room with bobby following me...

    and got my parents onto the loveseat and i stood in front of them with bobby just one step behind me... and i told them i have something to tell them...

  • @TheDuckii318 i took a deep breath and grabbed brandon's (bobby's) hand and pulle dhim towards me and dad stood up and began to yell and brandon knocked him out and we took off to brandon's house for a week... luckily, we had already came out to his parents

  • I wish u were my mom.... :(

  • She's awesome

  • Your mom is the best<3 I wanna be just like here when my child comes out. (I know he will...when he's born...)

  • this made me cry..................

  • LOVE YOUR MUM <3

  • If I even told my parents I was Bi they would flip out, lol.

  • This woman is an absolute gem...I mean the world would be a much better place if parents viewed all issues involving their children like this not just homosexuality so I gotta say I am in complete awe and have nothing but respect for this woman.

  • kickass motherrr :)

  • Waoh... awesome mom.

  • May I just say your mom absolutely rocks.

  • i love your mom, i wish every gay could have that mom hahaha :D

  • I came out to my sister that way :D,sept it was on a boat and i threw it at her as a ball after beating around the bush...

  • made me cry this is a wonderful women and an amazing mother my mom responded exactly as she predicted and like she said BE WHO YOU ARE AND DON'T TRY TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE HAPPY MAKE YOURSELF HAPPY

  • shame on you parents! cant u see homosexuality is just like having down syndrome or some other disea.. wait huh? hahaha at least she admits it.

  • @coolpunkxx no she did it, she said if your child is born with down syndrom or some other disease why would you turn it away? Then why turn away if they are gay? Idiot she wasn't saying that.

  • @gorrilabash thats stupid your extremely retarted. How do you want to be a rapist or murder... Just stfu and go back to where you came from im still laughing from reading your comment.

  • adopt me

  • i showed my grandma my gaia profile while i sat beside her, she didnt really care b'cuz she already kind of knew

  • What a top notch mother ♥ soo accepting :D

  • Your mum is amazing, she is a model parent.

  • My mother has the belief of "love your children no matter what", but she still has a problem with it, because she throws religion in with it. It makes me so angry, she doesn't understand how ridiculous is is that "God" would create me this way and also send me to hell for it. It infuriates me.

  • @djoiner2013

    Same with my mom; she loves me, but still believes homosexuality is wrong, etc., etc.

  • When i told my family i was gay they asked if i believed in god. So I told them I believe God loves his children unconditionally and does not discriminate against people with same-sex attractions. A plan of my parents was to have me talk to a priest which back-fired on them. After talking to me he sat down with them and told them God judges me by the good acts I do, and that simply living a homosexual lifestyle wouldn't get me sent to hell.

  • WOW! Your mom is absolutely amazing. We need more women like her in this world. Give her a huge hug for me would you?

    Raz

  • ur the gayest cunt ever

  • your mom is the greatest! i wish my parents could understand me. you're very fortunate.

  • OMG what a great video i just LOVE this chanel!!!!!!

  • Dude, I wish every parent in the world with a gay kid was like your mom. She's just so unerstanding!

  • I love your mom (: she's so sweet!

  • I love her!!!! 

  • You go girl :) I wish their were more moms like you in this world.

  • I live in TN. My Parents would shoot me. I wish I had a mom like yours. Your mom is like fucking amazing!

  • i wonder why did some people dislike this video...I think she's the BEST mom ever!

    wish that my parents is that understanding :)

  • i love your mom (and dad) :) you're so lucky to have them and they're lucky to have you too!

  • 22 people accidentally clicked the "dislike" botton!

  • i want a mom like yours :)

  • John, Your mom is absolutely wonderful. This video is just amazing too :p It lets me know that there are always people out there, strangers or not, that would support me in troubled times. :)

  • you have an amazing mother, and the world would be a much better place if there were more mothers like her.

  • This is AWESOME!!!! I feel so much love for both of you beautiful people!

    <3

  • John, you have a great MOM, dude.

  • Oh my god. Your mom is amazing and I ♥ her! :)

  • Wow! AMAZING!!!! Thanks for posting and sharing! :)

  • AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! I love your mommie!!!!!

  • I want you to know your mom is the perfect example of parents that have LGBT Children, they should always love and support kids no matter what it is. It's really a shame that those parents sometimes kick them out of the house and turn backs on them, its stupid, and it makes you think how does that reflect on the parents.

  • Amazing mother she really is!

  • She made me cry. You are lucky to have such a great mom that loves you so much.

  • Lover her! Love the way she's not taking any shit from idiot parents and love the way she says "shame on you!" to em.

    Also funny was when she said it would be like having a baby with a disease or down syndrome! Odd comparisons but I totally get what she meant.

    She's delightful. But, "Mrs, Couver", it is possible that Jeremy's mom is one of those demented weirdo's who do actually throw their child out, etc, rather than embracing him. :O(

  • ure mom is a great speaker @couver87

  • i love your mom

  • i love your accent johns mum.... btw im from australia ahahah

  • my mom has known for almost two years now and shes never treated me differently. in fact now she point out girls that she thinks would be good for me. and i love her for that. your mom is awesome. <3

  • can you be my mom?

  • this video was made on my birthday and I don't if thats a sign from God??!!

  • wow, you really look like your mom! :) great guy, great mom, i know this channel is mostly about being gay and such, but i find it really interesting and fun to watch, although im straight, im sure there is room for a straight guy on a gay channel right? :P

  • Love your mom!!! And thanks, getting her side helped :)

  • you mum is AMAZING!!!!!!  i want to be her best friend ^-^

  • It took my mom 14 years to cope but she's a nervous unhappy person. Your mom is the best.

  • Aww, your mum is an amazing person. You're very lucky :)

  • OMG Your mom is AMAZING!!!!!!! I love her and she is an inspiration. I hope when i come out to my parents they are as loving as she is. I really do appreciate you posting this video. Thank you to you and your mom. -hugs and kisses-

  • I love your mom. She reminds me of my mom, who showed the grace and unconditional love of a healthy human being. May there be more of these wonderful moms in the world.

  • 1,000,000,000,000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 STARS TO YOUR MOM!!!!!!! AND MORE XD

  • Your mom is AMAIZING! She really knows her stuff. 10 PTS FOR AWSOME MOM!

  • What a wonderful mother. Mine is such too. When i first came to her, she started laughing and told me, that she always knew that thing and felt it in her heart. But she said-i love you, and not because you'r my kid, but because i really do...and when someone loves somebody, and when it's real love-it has to be undonditional...or it's not love at all. So people-don't be afraid.

  • oh God Bless your Mother! What an angel. You are SOOOO lucky.

  • she looks a lot like you =P but im sorry i couldnt tell my parents no matter how they would react good or bad, its just too much...

  • wow to be 50 years old or older and still in the closet? WOW!

  • WHAT A GREAT LADY!!! THAT'S A REAL MOTHER!!!

    CHILDREN FOR PARENTS COME TOP OF ANYTHING... RELIGIONS, SOCIAL CONVENTIONS OR WHATEVER. THEY'RE THEIR BLOOD, FLESH AND BONES; AND THAT'S ALL THAT COUNTS!!! NOTHING ELSE IS IMPORTANT OTHER THAN YOUR CHILD'S HEALTH AND HAPPINESS!!! (IT IS PERFECTLY HEALTHY TO BE GAY!!!)

    A BIG HUG TO YOU ALL!!!

    AN ADMIRER FROM ITALY

  • you are somewhat lucky!a nice face,nice body and a nice mom.

  • This woman is a great person

  • "She stopped pleasing people a long time ago"? :P

    Your mom is absolutely awesome, but... I couldnt resist. So out of respect, instead of directly making a sexual inuendo joke, I'll just establish the fact that I made a joke.

  • T-HAIR-ABLE! T-HAIR-ABLE! Haha, cracks me up...

  • Uhhhh-Mazing. Made my NIGHT! what a unique real loving mother.

  • aw, your mum is such a sweetie

  • your mom rocks!!!!!

  • Yay Mom!

  • Hi, this is the first video of your's that I have watched..... and your mum just got me to subscribe. Please tell her that I think she is amazing

  • Your mom is amazing. I wish there were more open-minded parents like yours out there.

  • For me Gay is a Curse.

  • Your mother is awesome! But please don't compare being homosexual to having a disease! Homosexuality is NOT a disease for you to ask parents to deal with it.

    I'm sorry I just had to point that out. xx

  • @mtftg She was comparing it to a disease because a disease is something you can't change and are born with. Come on now.

  • Your mom is so enlightened, god bless you both!

  • I just cried from smiling. I wish I had your mom. x.x

  • these poxy adverts

  • Oh really mom, theyre people like you and me? I had no idea.

  • Your mom looks like you and I would totally do her. But not you. thats gay!

  • Mom, you made me tear up :')

  • Your mom is the bomb!!!!

  • This is a great video! everyone should listen to this mom. It took my best friend years to come out, but i think he feels better about himself now that he has.

  • @supaman575 You should be embarressed by your post. His mom is beautiful. And what's not to be proud of?

  • thumbs up for the mom

  • i love your mom. she reminds me of mine when i came out! :) love!

  • i love your mom, trade?

  • Spoken by a true parent

  • TO ALL PEOPLE GOING ON ABOUT GOD AND THE BIBLE, IT IS CONTRADICTING AND TWISTED BY MEN IN THE MIDDLE AGES. IT IS NO LONGER THE BOOK WRITTEN 1950 YEARS AGO AND IF YOU QUOTE ONE BOOK ANOTHER WILL SAY YOU ARE WRONG AND QUOTE ANOTHER BOOK SO GIVE UP! love the show btw

  • I love her!!!! She's wonderful!!!! :D

  • omg i love your mom she is great and also ya my mother and father put me in tharepy and after 4,000 bucks my shrink was like face it he is gay.......... and also it tore a hole in between me and my father so u rock man for having a loving family xoxoxo jordna anderson

  • CAN YOUR MOM ADOPT ME???

    :-/

    SHES THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON I'VE EVER SEEN/HEARD

    I JUST LOVE HER :) <3 <3 <3 <3

  • i need a mother and a father like that...sadly my parents are too religious to accept who i am. im too scared to come out bc if i do get kicked out i have no money to back myself up and live on my own. so for now im in the closet until i can support myself

  • Man, you have a lot of comments. I'm sure you don't have time to read them all. But I do want to say that I am glad you and your mom have such an open relationship. Too many people don't have one at all. My mom is amazingly supportive of me, too, and I love her so much. I guess what I want to say is that Moms are so important, thanks for loving yours!

  • Ur mommy made me cry haha, I wanna her for me!! Do u want a bother John? I'm a nice person !

  • Freakin' awesome mum! :D

  • WHAT A GREAT MOM!!!!!

  • Cierto da miedo hablar, 1 vez que se logra controlar y se tiene la suerte de tener unos padres asi, todo es mas facil. X suerte fue lo q me paso hace poco- Its true, its scary to talk, but once you control that fear and have the luck of having parents like this ones, everything is easier. Luckly, this happened to me few weeks ago, now i talk to them whenever i need to and i feel really supported, its a great new world for me and thanks to them, will be more easy and safe for me to learn about it

  • Your mom is amazing! I wish i had a mom like yours! I think she would be so easy to talk to! Thumbs Up to you good man!

  • at this point phobic parents say more about the parent than the child...kudos to Mom for being so relaxed and cool - she obviously has the metal and emotional health to know you have your own life and feeilings...and sexuality -- most parents dont - heres a great question for you - why do guys have to come out ?? why do we live in a country where fascist ideas about sexuality and gender still exist and why do haters always think that you are responsible to their hate ??

  • My parents always knew i was, i think its more of they have always known but they are kind of in denile or they just want you to come to them and open up. I always knew i was gay but didn't really accept myself till i was about 14 or 15 then came out to like the world hahah when i was about 16 ish, and i can honestly say that was the best feeling ever =]

  • your really lucky to have a mum like that :). when i told my mum i was gay i was so terrified and she was a bit cold with me for a while but she accepts me for who i am and i'm glad

  • Your mum, is awesome! Best mum ever :)

  • there wwas this gay couple walking down the street and my parents were like "if any of you kids are gay, we're kicking you out." and they laughed... I was 13 and i knew i was gay at th time. Its traumatic knowing that ur parents hate u if they knew. Ur lucky to have a mom & dad like urs are. :/

  • i dont know how my mom would react if she found i was bi...she wuld probably freak out at first and say you dont kno what you want

  • Wish all moms were as great and accepting as this!

  • yay for cool moms like yours and mine !

  • your mom is just amazing i luv her

  • You have the best mom ever! :)

  • Your mum is really sweet! :-)

  • my mom is nuthing like dat . both my parents would kill me if they found out i was bi... literaly!!!

  • Love your mom incredibly lol

  • Your mom should get an AWARD!!!!......great words! "it's not a big deal"

  • supermom

    

  • She's a genius.

  • This video really had made me beyond happy, and more comfy with my sexuallity I cant even thank you enough

  • awww yay i luv your mom

  • awwww you lucky to have a lovely mom, i love the way she say be who you are>333

  • Omg i Love your mom she is amazingi wish everyone could have a mother like her

  • Your mom is awesome. She may be my new favorite person.

  • I wish i saw this vidoe when i was trying to come out to my mom and dad... i was literaly shaking when i told them, i was that nervese. (sry if some words are mis-spelled

  • Thank you so much!!! I'm not gay, but I am an atheist. It feels the same way.

  • Your mom is cool

  • This mom is wonderful, my mom felt the same way, I love it when parents are like this. I know it is hard to come out, but have hope! Parents love their children. End of story. Even if it takes them some time to accept you, they never stop loving you.

    My heart goes out to all the closet-dwellers, may you soon abandon your cramped prisons and come have tea and cupcakes with the rest of us. I just stepped out myself, and oh my, the weather is lovely out here. Lots of love!

  • You are a lucky man John and for people who are in closet I always say if you have to relay on your parents and you think they make kick you out then do what is safe for you, not all parents are going to react like this amazing women. But maybe they will, but you know them best you can test the waters, as long as its safe.

  • An admirable woman she is, but not all parents are like this. It's such a shame, but they get used to it eventually. It just takes time. Have faith, closet folk! :D

  • Five Stars for your mom, she is AWESOME!!!

  • Your mom has earned her spot on my hero board.

  • i wish i could have a mom like this

  • OMG, I wanna give your mom a hug <3 If only my mom can understand this issue like yours...

  • I bet his mom used to b hot

  • OMG your mum is amazing!!! :D

  • Ms. what if every time i talk to her, she just don't understand it and cuts in? My family is a bit different; nobody apologizes, blames it on one another, and takes the anger out on others in the family? Yes, i did think of commiting suicide b4, and once my mom caught me once & dared me to do it while screaming at me. Every day is just what "I did wrong", and calculates the bill to me every day over the dinner table kinda conversation, really one sided...sigh...

  • @Tohruyuki123 I'm so sorry to hear you're going through this. Take your time, no need to rush it. Choose the right moment.

    By the way, you should watch a great movie that is totally relevant to your situation. It's called "Prayers for Bobby" starring Sigourney Weaver. I never get tired of recommending this movie to people because it is a very moving real life story with a very positive end message. For you and your parents. I wish you all the best. xx
