Sit them down (or write it out), try to stay calm, give them hints and then subtlety work your way up to coming out. If they don’t accept you, I do. You are wonderful and being non-binary is everything. I hope I helped at least a tiny bit

ok, i’m gonna give bad advice. i have never come out “properly”. i’ve always come out because i’ve either just randomly said something, like when i just said i was bi out of nowhere without thinking, or, for when i came out as genderfluid, i was wearing a necklace that said fluid and then my mum noticed so i had to explain. my parents are supportive though. (i mean, not entirely. there’s some things they could work on, but in general, no big issues.) so because of that it made it easier. i always tell people to make sure they are safe to come out, because that’s important. yee. either sit your parents down, literally jump out of a closet and tell them, or wait until you just randomly say something and then explain it. good luck!

(such bad advice, i’m sorry. i always planned to sit them down, but i waited too long until i did a stupid thing and had to explain. there were a lot of other weird plans. writing a note could be easier. or! you could play them a video stating that you are non binary and then see their reaction. i personally still love the idea of coming out of a closet, because it’s so.. sooo.. something. i genuinely wish you luck, you don’t have to listen to a thing i have said (except the wishing of luck).)

If you are worried how they will react test the waters by bring up tops about queer people and anyone in the lgbtq community depending on how they resct to those topics could show you how they will react to you coming out Be safe pleaee

Example when I tried coming out I told my dad about my trans friend and then he talked about how trans people are bad and that to me showed me i cant come out This doesnt always work just try to stay safe and always have a back up plan

Im also sorry you had a similar story Hope everything is well with you as well

#

Coming out can be scary sometimes but also a really great thing if you come out to the right people and the right time

I suggest finding out if they will accept you for you by saying something like “oh yea one of my favorite content creators came out as nonbinary or something like that and depending on how they react is how they will react to you coming out

#

just know that if it isn’t safe for you to then it’s better to just not come out
