She is 14 next week, she came to my room and said she had something to tell me. She was crying quite a bit.
She said she thinks she is gay. I gave her a massive hug and told her that I was really proud of her and she should never be ashamed and should always be herself.
She said she was worried people would shout faggot at her when she walked down the street. I said if they do ignore them they are being hateful and you aren’t there to listen to their prejudices.
She doesn’t want to tell her dad, we aren’t together I said that it was up to her when she told him and it was up to her when she came out to the rest of the family.
I don’t want to force her and I don’t want her to feel like she has some dirty secret because it isn’t. Any advice?
