With your parents, what have they done that tells you they're homophobic? And often, I find that parents tend to be more open-minded when it's their child. Also, I'm going to tag in @MonsoonΒ and @Aurora so that they can help you out :) MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadInside Posted November 5, 2022 Author Share Posted November 5, 2022 So I have a lot of pride flags around my house, and each time we go by one of the houses with one, she gives be a lecture about how it is not okay or christlike to be LGBTQIA and she also puts down and stays away from anyone LGBTQIA. She has done all she can to keep me away from rainbows and anything about love. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering, if you do come out to them, how do you think it will go? Is it safe for you to come out at the moment? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mom is very against LGBTQ+ and I'm pretty sure I would be kicked out. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey there, I'm sorry to hear that. From what you've said, it might be a good idea to not tell them until you are living independently. I know that would be really hard, but it's important to stay safe, and getting kicked out puts you in a vulnerable position. What do you think?

Hey, Yeah, and I know this will be hard to keep from them, so it's important to build your support network, and if you feel ready, open up to other people you trust about what's going on.
