I am having trouble with my parents. They don't understand me. I am having people in school making fun of me. I try telling my parents, but they aren't helping me what soo ever. The only people I can talk to are my friends. They understand me and what's going on. Then my parents keep accusing me of being gay, becuase I like get my hair colored and spend a good bit of money on my hair. Then I also want my ear pierced and stuff. I want to do it cause I like it. Then they think I'm gay, because I love being in musicals and singing. I somewhat lately like both sexes, but I am damn well not gay. I am not sure what my orientation is right now. If i ever told my parents that I liked both sexes they would kill me. I really need help bad.

ok 1. don't listen to the kids at school that are calling you names, and that stuff.
2. maybe you SHOULD back off on the hair coloring thing b/c maybe they are mad at you for the hair coloring b/c maybe they are paying for it.
3. the singing and theater business. KEEP ON DOING IT!!!!!!!!!!!! I love to act and that kind of thing but i am too scared to be on stage in front of many people. so keep doing that for you and me
4. the sexuality thing. you might want to repost that question/look in the teen sexuality:gay/bi/lesbian section for some insight/ try and figure who you really are attracted to
I'm sorry that you are being teased by kids in your school. and I'm sorry that your parents are like the way that they are so just keep on being yourself and don't care about anything anyone says about you(in a negative way) i hope this helps
and good luck ^_^

I dont think you should stop colouring your hair just because of what people think! If it makes you happy go for it
Parents - they will never understand unfortunatly but you just have to make the best of it. Stay close with your friends and remember everything does get better.

From my perspective the issue is that your parents aren't taking you seriously. When you talk to your parents about the problems at your school they probably don't think you're being straight forward with them or that you're just complaining about what to them is ordinary teenage behavior. And when they say that you're gay and you tell them you're not, your answer probably lacks sufficient seriousness and tone. You have to present yourself as a person who isn't messing around. I'm not advising you to act like a degenerate, but be very firm with your answers and convey your anger in an appropriate manner when you're feeling it. The next time you have troubles at school go to your parents and in a very serious tone explain the situation from the beginning with as much detail as possible. Tell them that it's really distracting and difficult to deal with. If they stop you or give you unnecessary attitude that suggests they find it amusing, get them back on track. And regardless of your sexual orientation, if you're firm and serious enough with your answers it will be believable.

They're calling you names for a reason.

If your fat, It's your fault.

If your ugly, It's not your fault.

If your just weird, It might be your fault.

exc,

Now, Some fat person here is going to ask "How is being fat my fault?" You eat too much, if you have a low metabolism then you just need to eat less or low fat foods. That is up to YOU therefore it is your fault if you don't. If you have a medical problem because your fat, that is not your fault.

nine times out of ten being fat is 100% your fault. If you eat because your stressed your a complete and utter moron.


If you're doing something out of the norm, like being in musicals you need to learn to justify it.
This means, telling them you like acting, or something therefore this is good practice.

To be honest, and I'm going to tell you this straight. Grow some balls and stand up for yourself. No one here will give you a quick fix because there is no quick fix.

I don't care if they ground you or some stupid shit. You do what you have to do, To win.
Why get your hair colored? That is NOT normal therefore it will come with certain "Assumptions" like you being gay, exc. Piercing's on guys are just kinda weird unless they are emo.

saying "They don't understand me" is also your fault, make them understand. If your beliefs contradict their beliefs then they are not going to understand simply because everyone has their own beliefs.

F.Y.I if you like both sexes you are GAY and STRAIGHT and the word "Bi-Sexual" simply says that, that person is gay and straight. So, Yes you are gay but you are also straight.




Also, Parent's usually do understand and I'm sure someone here is thinking oh I'm a goodie goodie but I'm far from it. You are just over reacting.
