I am a bisexual teen. I have no clue how to come out to my parents. Please help.

Do you have to come out to your parents? Are you in a situation that demands that you come out to them?
In my opinion, sexual orientation is something personal, that shouldn't have to discuss with your parents, unless if you are seeking for advice.

>>2 I completely disagree with you. Sexual orientation should be a topic that you should be comfortable talking with your parents/family about. Out of all people, they should understand your situation for who you who are, especially as their child. It's truly saddening that some parents don't see that. In my opinion, I think it is best to come out and be open about it, no matter how hard it may be. This depends on how your parents feel about people who have different sexual orientations, however!! If you believe that your family will be accepting about this fact, you should definitely tell them. If you think that they won't be as accepting, then I suggest to wait a little longer and reconsider what the outcome could be.

In some situations, parents and other family members are not always accepting about someone else's sexual orientation. If your family is similar, I think it is best to reconsider telling them because they may think of you differently. If you think it is worth it and they will be able to understand, I would advise to go ahead and tell them.

>>1 I think it's best to sit down and talk directly to them about it. Since its such a sensitive topic, I suggest that you tell them without dragging out the truth.

Best of luck!

>>2 I would say take the opposite stance, which is try to tell them unless there is a reason not to. You should be able to trust your parents with that kind of personal information. I think in the long run it would be healthier for this individual if they could tell their parents.

Now, if there is a good chance they wouldn't be accepting, then maybe it's not a good idea to come out. I don't know your situation OP.

>>3 >>4 I understand now :D Thanks for the explanation.
>>1 I hope it goes well for you, Snackeeyy <3

I just came out to my best friend and she was so supportive! Then she came out to me as bisexual!!

That's amazing! Now you can have fun checking out people together ;p

>>6 congrats!! so glad that you are doing well :)

There are way more lgbt people in the world than many realize. Im mtf transgender and lesbian for example. Its not that big of a deal these days. So unless your parents are assholes about this kind of thing just tell them as you would mention any other trivial thing

I wouldn't mention it unless you find a partner of the same gender. If you do, just act like it's normal. IMO making it an occasion just enforces the idea that it's something that could be considered bad. I don't know your parents tho.

Hey Snakeeyy. I think everyone has to navigate it differently. But first of all, I just want to reassure you... that there isn't pressure to "come out" to your parents *right now*... especially, if you think that it poses a risk to your safety, or your ability to live at home. I think it is best to be strategic about it, and to at least find friends or community members who you can trust, and who can be supportive in the meantime. That's what chosen family is for.

I don't want to take up too much space here. But if you require some additional support ... there may be resources where you live (I could also potentially help you find them).

It depends on your parents. Since you know them more than me, you might try and play out ways to tell them, and guess their reaction.
You might try and be humble to them. a person cant change their 'bisexual status', so make sure that you can get the point across that they can't change that you're a bisexual teen, and just learn to live with it.
Parents will still love their children unconditionally.. So all I'm saying is Good Luck! try and be humble to them, and my advices are kinda bad :")

Sorry T^T But I wish you good luck.
