Ezzo Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I've recently come across some things in my 12yo daughter's social media account that leads me to believe she is Bi.I did suspect she may be gay prior. So it isn't a total shock. She is not out to me. I'm not sure if she is out to her friends.I do want her to come to me in her own time, and am very accepting of this.My question is, are there any books or anything that you think would help her navigate? Coming out stories, acceptance stories, or even just stories where the lead happens to be non straight. She does have aspergers and books are a great way for her to work things through.Thanks for any suggestions (both for books and general) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezzo Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 Thanks so much for the suggestions! I've bought 2 of them. I thought I'd hold off on the others so it isn't toooo obvious.Hopefully she will feel ok to have the conversation with me soon.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twin2 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 I really appreciate you posting this as my 12 year old confided in me on Friday night she is gay (her words) she knew we would be fine with it (we have had lots of conversations about it over the last couple of years( but having some resources for her to read is great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
