Hello I am Alex trans male Demi boy but my parents always used she/her pronouns on me and it never felt right and I am a minor so if they kick me out I don’t know where I would go but my parents are really starting to make me uncomfortable with using she/her pronouns and saying I am a “good girl “ which I really hate! I would really like some advice from others trans people since my mom doesn’t really support trans people because she says it is just a trend and people would regret it later! And my dad says I am too young to understand what I want. I would like some help from young trans people that have been/going through this too!

It seems like your parents wouldn't be accepting/supportive if you came out. So it might not be the best idea to do it at the moment. When coming out, your personal safety and wellbeing should be your #1 priority, so if you feel like people will have a negative reaction to you coming out, then it's probably best to not come out to them.

Also your mom is completely wrong. Being trans (as is any other gender identity) is not a trend or a phase or anything like that. The number of fully transitioned trans people that regret it later down the line is very small.
