guilherme Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Hello, I'm new here. But I think you can help me with something. I am a guy that is gay and I wanted do tell that to my parents. They are not homophobic but I don't know if they support LGBT people or not. I am scared that I'll lose them and I think you might help me whith that. I would just want to know if you had any advice or not. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Hey Guilherme, Coming out is definitely a common thing for people to ask about-- you're not alone! We do have some resources that you can check out: https://www.ditchthelabel.org/coming-out-to-your-parents/ https://www.ditchthelabel.org/speak-anyone-anything-conflict-resolution/ It's good to prepare yourself- what kind of questions do you think they would ask? Are you safe to come out? (If they don't respond well, is there a place you can go that you are safe') Do you have a support system of people who love and accept you, as you are, already? They're not homophobic, that's great! -- Have you felt supported by them, in the past? It's less about them supporting LGBTQ+, and more about them supporting you as an LGBTQ+ person. -willow MultiQuote Quote This Digital Mentor Account is no longer active.
