As a gay teen, I can honestly say...
I know what its like to live in fear. My parents are outright homophobic, which is why I haven't told them that I'm gay. Its very difficult for me to act straight around them because I am, and I admit it freely, a little bit ummmm flamboyant and dramatic. The even bigger kick, is that I'm a devout Roman Catholic. Despite what the Church says about homosexuality, I believe that God created me to be me. Nobody can change that. Even if I have to live in fear of my parents finding out, I refuse to change who I am. I have friends who love me and will always be there for me, I have a boyfriend that has gotten me through many a hard day. I wouldn't change my life for anything in the world. So remember, God made you who you are. Don't let anyone tell you to be someone else.
May the peace and love of Jesus Christ our Lord be with you always.
