That mom is toxic. Sorry you have to deal with that.
Disagree. Mom may be awkward or slightly ignorant, but telling your child that you accept them if they’re gay and presumably worried about mentioning their dating life to you is basically the opposite of toxic.
Imagine thinking "I better let my child know I love and accept them in case they had doubts" is toxic.
Good news, believe there was a misunderstanding here :)
