So, i'm 14, and i've known i'm a lesbian for a while. I'm pretty much openly gay at school, and i know that i really need to tell my parents. But how?? i literally shake when i think about it, im so nervous. My parents totally are cool with gay people, but im just scared at how they will react and how things will be afterwards. Please help??

" Hey there. Well, I would say since you're already open at school and your parents are okay, go for it. You are going to just keep feeling worse and worse about not telling them. Trust me, it takes such aload off once they know. "

" Honestly, sweetie, that's something you have to do in your own time. I think when you feel like you're ready, you're definitely ready! I came out to my parents at a very emotional moment, and it wasn't the best time. Take your time, there's no need to rush it! But if you feel like you're ready, go for it!! Much love~ "
