I think parents who think they can change their child's sexual orientation are idiots. Whether or not legal action is taken should depend on what exactly is going on. Are they telling their children that they can and/or should change and leaving it at that? No, as stupid and foolish and wrongheaded as that is, I don't know if that rises to the level of abuse. Parents often do say stupid and hurtful things to their kids in their attempt to raise them, but that doesn't always equal legally actionable abuse. I think if they're using abusive measures in their attempts to change them, then they absolutely should be held accountable.
