The answer is no and my child would know the reason why. My child would also know that although I love him/her , that does not mean that I will support their lifestyle. Its no different to me than if my child was a drug addict or a prostitute.
This is something that parents go through everyday (watching their child do things that they do not approve of). Disapproval does not mean "I don't love you anymore".

Honeykiss...you bring up a good point...this reminds me of a friend of mine who was a lesbian (temporarily) and her parents kicked her out of the house. I didn't understand why...and her mom told me that she loved her daughter...but she would not and could not condone the "sin" under her roof. If my friend wouldn't have invited her "lovers" to the house...they wouldn't have had a problem with it...but she said she wasn't allowing that in her house. Although back then I thought it was harsh...I understand her role as a Christian Mom. She said even if she was straight...she wouldn't allow a man to stay over night...so the issue was more so supporting the sin I guess.. She didn't cut her daughter off...but she said she had to go...
