Need advice

[Bhav]

My teenage daughter who will be 16 soon, had told me she is bisexual and I’m not sure how I should deal with it, as I haven’t told my husband and our family and friends. I’m worried about she being bisexual.

You don't have to deal with anything. Just be accepting.

My daughter who is 19 and who ended her relationship with her 1.5 year Long boyfriend has told me she is having casual sex at University and is just having “fun” - the idea of her sleeping around for fun has shocked me but she says it’s normal - am

Occasional ! Hers seems often ! Sooo worried

Be glad she felt able to tell you. Now move on coz nothing about her is different than before she told you.

Thank you ! Just find it hard to seek advice as some Mums judgemental ie
My daughter doesn’t do that etc !

Thanks it's just I was glad that she was able to talk to me about it and now I'm having all kinds of mixed feelings about the hole thing, she hasn't had a boyfriend yet. She so young and I don't want her to make mistakes that will mess up her life and her catch's of being happy now her father on the other hand he wouldn't be very happy at all to know about and I believe my family and his family won't accept it in any way. I'm confused and scared and worried that what if this isn't a thing that's some people go through what if it's real.

Bhav,
Sexuality in adolescence is quite fluid. Teenagers’ brain go through a lot of rearranging, new connections are made and old ones are lost. This is a time for experimenting with many things. It’s all natural and what you have to do is create a safe environment where your child can explore. Which you seem to have done since she approached you, she trusts you and feels safe talking to you. Forbidding or disapproving won’t help as she’ll do it anyway and won’t tell you about it. At least now you know what’s going on. All you can do is listen, be non-judgemental and show respect for her as a person. She is free to choose her own sexual orientation. Take the opportunity when she talks to you about this to advice her about safe sex.
She is still very young. Brain rearranging will carry on until she’s 24 so it’s too early to worry about whether she’ll remain bisexual. She may or she may not.
I would suggest you find a way to try and get her dad on board. Try to understand why he is against it and maybe find a way to address the stigma he was towards LGBT people.

Dd came out with that at 13 and became very politicised about it all. She’s currently in a relationship with a male, (which kind of makes me regret all the managing grandparent expectations as it seems, at least at the moment, not needed.)
Just be accepting and see where life takes her.
