My story

"You mean I can do this?"

My child, age ten, the night they told me.

When my son was seven, he woke up on his birthday crying because he was supposed to wake up a girl that day. I gave them a loving, reasonable answer, and they stopped telling me for three years.

When they were ten, it came back to the surface as a suicide note. I sat on the edge of their bed and told them, "We will figure this out." They looked at me and asked, "You mean I can do this?" I said yes.

Then I went downstairs and fell apart. The next morning I kept everything looking normal for everyone else while I was dying inside.

The person who got me through it didn't have answers. She listened, she stayed, and she told me I was doing it right. That's what I offer you.

This is for you if

Your child came out in the last year, or you think they're about to
You love them and you're terrified at the same time
You haven't told your own parents, or you told them and it went badly
Your partner or ex isn't on the same page
You need someone to tell you what to actually say, not another article
