My daughter has a male friend who is gay but is too scared to tell his family as they are catholic and make it very obvious they are against same sex relationships. He lives every day for them, he is at university studying to be a doctor because his parents want him to do that and he has ‘girlfriends’ as a cover so his family don’t know he is gay.

Should he live a lie to make his family happy?

Do your parents dictate your life?

Should a gay person have to make a big announcement about it?

I would tell the truth and damn the consequences! I couldn’t care less if my son or daughter is gay it’s their life not yours.
