Are parents that see their son in this way worth holding onto? They recently found out about my significant other and told me that my happiness is not worth the price of giving up being normal, and how little they love me. They’ve asked if I have AIDS, if I was molested by a priest, and other questions far too graphic to go into. I am 18 years old and in need of advice and insight. My parents found out I was gay almost three years ago. Ever since then, they have berated me for it - either that, or they’re outright ignoring it.
