Answer #1

Not sure who you’re talking about? Your mom?

Look, in an ideal world, parents would have unconditional love, they would love you regardless. But this is the real world. Parents arent quite all that accepting and willing to accept you… If she cant deal with it, then she cant. What possible difference do your personal beliefs make? Just let her believe what she believes, and you live your life… Sometimes there are more important things in life than making a point…

Answer #2

Most parents of any kind of religeous background, can never accept a childs indifference to their beliefs…my mother and my family are total catholics, and me being bisexual is very hard on my family…I’ve tried to convince them that, they cant change me…regardless of what they say or do…keep believing what you want…I learned at an early age to not conform to anyone…its your life, not there’s..If your mom keeps trying its her own energy wasted…just dont even fight back, its her decision to battle you with this…her loss…Help this helped!
