Is that causal or correlative?

Probably both, honestly.

In general, it's correlative.

However, in practice, it's also causal, because very often acceptance grows from having a child/loved one who is LGBT.

Dick Cheney was against gay marriage as Vice President, but his daughter is credited for getting him to change his opinion, and now he is pro-gay-marriage. The cause of his change of heart was literally love for his child.
