Well what is your mom like? is she like... homophobic? Or is she open minded and all that?

When I came out to my parents , I was scared to even talk to them about it. I mean my family is strict Irish Catholics. But, what I did was to write a letter because I'm better at writing than I am at speaking. It depends on how you're more comfortable, if you're comfortable talking, sit her down and just go right into it. If you're not, letters, just blurting it out. Do whatever is comfortable with you, if you think she'll accept it just go right into it but if you think she won't accept it I would suggest waiting a while.

My personal thought to that is to wait until you are of age and on your own and not be in a hurry at your age to label yourself. I figure there's really no reason for either of my parents to know at this time. And I myself may not really know for sure exactly where I'm at for a few years.

First of all are you bi or just experimenting. I've kissed other girls and done a few little things but I'm not bi. No need to rush into things yet, take a while and maybe something may change. If it doesn't then you can tell her, I would wait for a while though.

You'll mature with age and able to make the most appropriate decisions. It's far better to keep the labels for later on in life if ever you feel like a bi. Most of the time, if you are grown-up enough, you'll understand that it was only hormones in action. At this age, hormones can make you become attracted to loads of things. It's the process of growing up.well, good luck! :)

The others gave you good advice, I came out to my parents as bi first and they didn't take it well but my mother seems okay with it now. If you come out and they don't react well maybe give them some time. Good luck :)

i am bi I have known for a few years

I wrote my parents a nice email. On the long side, you know perfect grammar and spelling and all that to try and convince them to... not to hate me I guess. They were okay with it and really impressed with the writing. You can give it to them in a letter, email, text, etc, as you may be better at telling them that way.

My suggestion is to wait for a while, people have had numerous (and especially mixed) results with coming out during high school. If you have a supporting group of friends that will accept you for who you are, and your mother is open-minded, it is up to you.

Wish you luck!

If I were you wait until you are on your own. I am 19 and going to attend community college but I am staying at home to save from university fees. I too may be bi but if my mother knew? I have no idea what she'd do.

Your best bet is to emphasize the fact that you still like guys, that always helps to keep parents from completely freaking out
