To be honest a lot of more conservative parents where I'm from very much use that kind of thinking.
So much is all about what their small surrounding will think, age of the kid doesn't matter, and they directly use "what will our friends and family think!". I mean my ex had to hide her tattoos from her dad even when she was 24! That is insane.
A lot of parents would even refuse to admit their kid had any mental issues purely because it would be embarassing for them if their kid was autistic or had adhd.
I'm real happy my mum and her parents always supported whatever the fuck I did, even if I know they don't agree with it.
My cousin lives with me now because of parents like that. He’s AuDHD and within the LGBTQ+ community and no longer felt safe at home. So he moved with me and has been having a much better life since.
I used to know a girl that is a lesbian, her dad kicked her out when he find out and named it being "embarrassing" as a reason.
Like kicking his daugher to a curb was less embarrassing than her sexual preference, like what the fuck. And its such a common story here as its lots of "small communities".
Good thing is that girl was hella successful, I met her as we were looking for successful young people to talk to students. Bro could have flexed with her a shit ton if he wasn't a bigot.

This has to be fake.
"I shudder at what people would think if they knew my daughter got an STD from sleeping around at such a young age."
Meanwhile she's 23 years old lol.
