When parents keep telling you it's a phase.

(true story)

You’re just my kid and I love you no matter what. That’s all that needs to be said.
:)

broo my "mom" tells me it's a phase all the time i hate it so much. thank you,

I’m a mom, it’s not a phase. Be you, don’t pretend to be someone else to please others. The world still is shitty but it’s a lot more understanding than it used to be. You’re welcome :)

You've made my day. Thank you, the world needs more people like you

I’m so glad I could. Your mom loves ya, she’s just a bit clueless as to how the world works now ;)

Yeah, I guess

It doesn’t feel like that now I know.

Yee, you're right. She'll come around and realize it's just who I am some day

That’s right. I think it’s hard for you but hard for parents too. Cuz we just expect things will be a certain way and when they aren’t we lose our shit or something. It’s not the end of the world. You’re still her child no matter what and deep down you are EVERYTHING to her no matter your sexuality etc. Remember that. It might be hard for her to say.

Thanks; they're both homophobic tho. They say it's a mental illness. I'm going to be just fine though, if I've been through the things I have been through in the past, I can get through this too. I mean, I'm still alive after all the stuff that's happened, this isn't much compared to anything else I have been through

That’s not ok. They need to get their heads out of their asses dear. Not a mental illness. Nothing wrong with you. This is coming from a southern straight white chick ya dig? You’ll get through it. Whole community of friends here and elsewhere as well. Everyone isn’t like that. Your parents will come around one day and if they don’t then it is their loss.
