Hey, no problem with him coming out at all. Maybe what you should do now is talk to your son about the relationship you have with him; it sounds like it could be more open. My mom has always told me I can tell her anything and that she'll love me no matter what. It really helped me come out without having to buy a t-shirt...and know that she'll love me regardless of my orientation. In fact she asked me if I was gay...

Coming out shouldn't be hard. It is. You can claim he was rude, but that's societies fault for saying something you can't change should be all that defines a person. Arguing that homosexuality/heterosexuality should NOT define a person is fine--but the truth is, that it *does*. People kick kids out of families for it--how many people kick kids out of families for liking soccer? Or being sexually active? It happens, but not *nearly as much*. Homosexuality is a huge defining point, and if my family was gonna dislike me for it, I'd troll them, too. If they *weren't* going to, then it's not trolling. Though, personally, I'd have brought a partner and been like, "have you met my boyfriend, Trevor?" THEN it would REALLY not be rude. o_o But I bet you people would still be ******* throwing a fit about it. Get over it.

Agreed with everyone who says its not an fml [because it isnt] . Its better this way so he doesnt have to explain to family why he doesnt have a girlfriend. I personally like the shirt and ive seen it [and if you want to buy one hottopic.com]I wanted to buy one but the dont have a "mom, im bi" shirt D,:

iknow how he feels. im turning sixteen and yet have told my mom im bi. if they if they had a shirt that said that i would buy ittt.... im sorry u had to find out tht way thoughh.

wow that's so stupid

why should yu be effin yur life? you should be proud of yur son! theres nothin to be embarrassed about you fuckn ****! suport him!

Maybe not the best time to come out in your opinion, but I think it is. This way he tells the whole family at the same time! Also, what the hell do you think you are doing writing this as an FML? You should be proud of raising a son who is so brave. And if people at the family reunion judge that means that the rest of your family sucks. To your son, I wish you luck and congratulations on having the courage to do what many people can't. Partly because they are worried about getting negative reactions like yours. Stop judging, and be a good parent which I am sure you must have been before if you raised a son like that.

So?

wtf thats rude i agree with every non homophobic here hell im gay respect his dassisions

respect for your son!
