how do come out to my parents?

Answer 1

what are you hiding from them?

Answer 2

This is difficult, it actually depends an awful lot on you and your family and the way you think they will react, If you know that they will be OK with it then you could come straight out at dinner, or just say you want to talk, however if this was the case i somehow doubt that you would be asking for help.
If you have a friend who you trust, then you might ask for them to be with you for moral support. If you feel that one of your parents may be more positive in their reaction to the other then you may wish to come out to them first so that you have them for moral support when you come out to the other.
I hope that this helps.

Answer 3

They are probably asking themselves when your going to say it to them, look they are your parents and will love you unconditionally no matter what it is your wanting to come out with and tell them, don't do it while they are busy find a time to get them both in one room together and tell them you have something that is very important to you to tell them, they might be a bit shocked at first but I would say they already know you are having a struggle and will help you and not judge, ask yourself this question, would you still respect and love them if they told you something you were unsure of how to handle, of course you would, then give them the benefit of the doubt and tell them, good luck and hope it works out.

Answer 4

you don't say 'out' about what so i'm going to take an educated guess and presume that you mean about your sexuality.. I have always believed that a parents love holds no boundries and we all have one fundamental thing in common and that is that we want our children to be happy and that extends to the choices they make in life what ever that may be.. I would suggest that you be totally honest and remember at all times that you have nothing to be ashamed of so they're not going to be angry with you -maybe a bit shocked but if they love you unconditionally like a parent should they will respect your choices in life and nothing should change that!
Of course your nervous but i'm sure everything will be fine and if they can't accept your choices you mustn't feel bad because it will be their problem and not yours.. all the best to you.. :-)

Answer 5

There is no easy way.

The best way to do it may be to just blurt it out.

When you are all sitting at the table, eating dinner, just say it.

You may get an emotional reaction from them. That is understandable. There may even be anger.

But, in the long run, after they give it some thought, they will be there for you, and still love you.

You should find support. Most large communities have support groups for gay teens.

Answer 6

Chances are they know already just go for it as the worst that can happen they will be in shock for a few days but as they love you ( all parents love there children) they will come round soon.

Answer 7

With someone I feel comfortable with (you know, anyone you can trust) come out any time you wish.
But with someone that I really love, be patient. It is possible they already know that you are gay, so coming out really quick, may backfire! Because saying something a family member does not want to hear can always create bad feelings.

Answer 8

Are you able to do impressions? I would suggest you continue to repeat the "I'm the only gay in the village" line from Little Britain whilst wearing an outrageous pink, pvc outfit.

Answer 9

It's not compulsory. Only you know what is best for you and your family. It may be the best thing ever, but I'm not going to kid on that it's going to be easy either.
You have to either say it or not.
Good Luck

Answer 10

Are you hiding something. If so just sit them down and tell them. It will hlep them to understand you more. Also helps your stress , you might be under. Good Luck Pem

Answer 11

Tell your mom first and have her break it to your dad. Moms take it better than dads do.

My little brother came out to my mom first and it eased the situation a lot.
