AboutRobbie Francis Expertise I CAN answer (and any that are similar): why do my parents hate me? Why can't my parents accept me? Is it wrong being gay? Will my parents ever accept me? Why do I feel so alone and alienated? Is being gay a sin? How can/do I come out? When do I come out? I CAN NOT answer: why am I gay?
Experience I am gay and have come out. I have been depressed and suicidal in the past, but I am much better now. I have helped friends who are gay.
Organizations Outdoor Odyssey (a mentoring program for special needs children), SLC (Students for Life Choices)
Education/Credentials In high school, so I can relate to most teens.

Answer Unfortunately, Morgan, since I don't know your personal and home life from a first person perspective, I can't really answer this. However, I can give you the advice that you need to do it when you are ready (and not a moment sooner!), when you think they are ready (DEFFINATELY not a second sooner!), and in a way you feel is appropriate. From what I got from your letter, I can conclude that your parents are set in their ways and coming out now may not be the best decision. This is an answer, Morgan, than can only be answered by looking into yourself and seeing what your heart tells you.
