I need help coming out as transgender to my parents and my family

Oh babe. First this is for your saftey, i want you to casually bring up things like "I heard about this insert trans topic happening in insert another country" This way you can understand a few of your parents veiwpoints on the topic to give you warning if it isn't safe to do so. I want you to check this before doing anything else okay. I know people who saying this has saved them before okay. I don't want to scare you, but I want you to be safe.

yeah, it's quite important to know your parents impressions on these topics. if you feel safe about coming out, i'd suggest picking a method (i came out via text because i don't live with my parents and felt more comfortable with this over a phone call) and working on what you'll say. maybe explaining what this means to you (like if you will want hormones , transition socially, change name/pronouns etc), how you feel and remind them you're still the same person after all.
