I told my parents. It wasn’t pretty.

@Blue,

Sorry things are so tough for you. Parents making things icky due to coming out as ....<gasp!> non-Xtian?

It really sux when parents and fams act like that. When I told my father I was not only not going on a mission for the Mormon church but was also not going to priesthood anymore he revoked his offer to pay for my college, but that was it. I got a job so I could pay rent at home but I still got to study computer programming at a JC. (Yes, they had computers then. See how you are? )

 

Glad to hear you guyz are living and breathing. Keep us updated and keep looking to that day when you can say to your folks...

"I am on my own now. Thanx for all the *&^%'ing hard times, the *&^%, ery, oh, and also all of the *(&%$#@ you put me through! I'm outta here, *&%%'s!

Your parents are ignorant dolts. Don’t feel guilty for their shortcomings.
