NONAME: How do I ask a homophobic mother permission to marry her son?
She knows her son’s gay and we are dating. She says she loves her son, disapproves of his “lifestyle choice”. During high school, she forced him into football and basketball when he has a love for music, dance, and art. Now she’s never show hostility to me personally.
I cannot marry someone without asking permission from their father, or mother in the case of single mothers. Doing so would violate a central tenet of my religion that believes doing so is stealing someone’s child they raised away from them. By marriage in my faith, care of him transfers from his mother to me.

let her observe how much you love eachother. maybe you all could go on a nice vacation and she could really see how you two are just meant to be together. Then after all that, take her aside and say that you love her son very much and i want to spend the rest of my life with him but i would like your blessing. may i marry your son?
You’ve asked this before… Did you create another account?Answer by RoRobface~
Asking a parent’s permission is a question of trust. Y’know, if you don’t ask, you don’t get. It’s just in case she a) says No and forbids it, or b) decides to tell him about it.
But you wont know what will happen until you try it, right? You might be pleasantly surprised…. maybe.
Answer by RemiiWell, i think the best you could do is say something like…
“Miss ____, i am aware that you do not approve of your son and me however as much as you may not like to believe, we truly do love each other, and want to spend the rest of our lives together. Even if you do not think it is right for us to be together, please understand this is the way things are, and we would like you to try and accept us, if only a little.
I am asking you, Miss _____, for your permission to marry your son.”
* a note, .. i hope you don’t think that if she does this and you get married that she is no longer allowed to care for her son… A mother cares for he child her whole life, married or not..
even if you are the main person caring for him.. she is still going to be there for him.
