Dean Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Hey tacofriyay. So I'm 14 and I'm bi , and I came out to My Mom's house , but like everyone at my Dad's house is homophobic and I want to come out openly but I'm scared of what my Dad will say and also I worried about what will happen at my sport. So do you have any advice? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do you have any advice? Hey Dean, I just thought I'd jump in here and give you some advice if that's okay? I'm wondering, do you feel ready to tell your dad? Also, how do you think he might react when you tell him? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So do you have any advice? Hi Dean! I’m happy for you that you could come out for your mom. How would you feel if you came out to your dad not alone but together with someone you trust as to get support while you do it?

Dean Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I feel sort of ready to tell him. I'm just worried that he'll get upset and go off on me about how wrong it is. But I would feel better if I had a friend or my Mom by me. Thank you tacofriyay. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there, It's good that you feel sort of ready to tell him, Just remember that there really is no rush, and if you're not fully ready, then that's more than okay. I'm wondering, how likely do you think it is that he'll be upset when you tell him? Also, if he does react badly at first, could it get better over time? This happens a lot and is because the bond between a parent and child is so strong, and that deep love is really so powerful in helping people to become more open-minded and accepting. It might help if you have a look at our support article here: https://www.ditchthelabel.org/my-parents-didnt-react-well-to-me-coming-out/ MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I think it's more than likely because he's quite religious so it would upset him a little. But he might accept it over time. I'm not quite sure. But thank you so much. I think I'll wait until I'm a little older and when I have like my Mom or a friend with me. thank you. I'll read the article.
