Ask Amy: Pride flag creates confusion for parents

Dear Amy: My stepdaughter is 21. She came out as gay about a year ago. We have been very supportive of her. We are very fond of her girlfriend. For Christmas, the two of them bought my wife and me a pride flag to display on our front porch. I have to be honest that while supportive I do not have any desire to fly the pride flag on my house. My stepdaughter and her girlfriend do not live with us and I don’t think they even have a flag at their own home. Is there anything I can say or do to not sound like a terrible person that I don’t want to fly this flag at my home? My wife may also feel offended if I say something against this. I’m really struggling with this. — Ally Dear Ally: This presents an opportunity for you and your wife to learn the intent and symbolism behind this gift. Did these two women present you with this flag to acknowledge your allyship?
