Homophobic Family.

[XxMurderedKissesxX]

I have a strong feeling my nephrew bisexaul. Im totally kool with that. But my mother makes homophobic comments at and around him.Alot. Which pisses me right off. She called me disgusting when I came out to her, but to do it to her grandson whos not even a teenager?! Her narrow minded views should be kept to herself, If hes straight or not. It doesnt help that his only parent is also homophic. It breaks my heart to see the look on his face when my mother says these mean things. But anything I say she disregards. What should I do?

w0w...if i were ur nephew, id just stay the hell out of her life..(has ur mom accepted u being bi?)

[XxMurderedKissesxX]

Nope. When I told her she totally freaked. Then got all the homophobic fam members to come dinner and brought up the subject of gay rights. Not fun.

With the title "Homophobic Family",(from my experience) I haven't seen or heard about a family hopping in joy about their children being gay.

As they all have the expectation that we grow up, get a job, get married and have children.

Unless your parents are queer-friendly people.

Im 15, and my newphew is 10. When my nephew said he was gunna marry is "Friend" Riley and whenever he calls him his wife. ( Their like the cutest couple ever) my mother says its disgusting. So ive notice he doesnt talk about riley anymore, and it makes me so angry because I know its all her fault that he feels ashamed.

hm..well..sounds like youll be a supportive structure in his life..soo..i guess just make him feel like he can talk to you bout anything, which im sure he already can

I think the best thing is for you and your nephew to be close. You guys will need support with a family like that and having each others back is the best thing to do!
