Show Notes
Today's generation of teens is incredibly accepting of each other, and families, parents are more accepting too. Both this and even the pandemic are resulting in kids coming out earlier than even a few years ago.
But what's the best way to respond when your kid (or your friend's kid) comes out to you? Chances are big, you've never been in that situation before, so it's normal you don't know the best way to respond. Maybe you're expecting to have this conversation in the (near) future or maybe not at all. Maybe you've already had this conversation and you're not sure whether you've handled it right. We think this episode with an overview of do's and don'ts is an important one for every parent out there to make our kids' coming-out moments smoother and easier.
