    They're trained, I'm not, and you can talk properly and securely.
    Also, if you can talk your parents into it, they have a line for them too.

    Don't worry though, they should come to terms with it eventually.
    Sorry I can't be of more help, it sounds a bit to volatile for me to say anything on such little info, I wouldn't want to make it worse.

    As unpleasant an experience as it may be, I think your best option right now is deny deny deny. Say you were just curious, make up excuses as to why you've seen it elsewhere (they might ban you from whatever you choose to blame). Say your friend suggested it and you didn't see the harm.

    Keeping a roof over your head right now is your priority really. You can still express that side of yourself outside the house, and soon enough you'll probably be off to college. When you're an adult that doesn't need their financial support, then you can tell them and they'll have to deal with it without threatening you.

    first of op *hug's to make you feel better*


    Secondly I second the post's above me , personally I would go mental but you really don’t want to do that , you can use the bible against them if you want to , the ot is going to recommend they stone you but the nt has a fair bit of “hate the sin not the sinner” stuff in it , Most Catholics don’t bother reading it enough to be able to counter argue it (even if they did it only contradicts it’s self)
