    I'm not sure if thats all necessary, in there eyes they are just trying to be good parents (I know they are not doing that, but thats besides the point) I don't think social serviced is needed.

    Do you have a landline at your house that you could use when they are out? Something they can't track? You need to contact authorities. This isn't right.

    Hi Pat! I'm sorry that you are in this difficult position. I am going to respectfully disagree with you on getting in contact with Social Services. I think you still should contact them because they can give you some advice on a number of issues related to the situation that you are in. I would urge you to get into contact with them to get some form of help given the fact that you have considered cutting yourself and that you are crying yourself to sleep and that you are deeply affected emotionally by their actions. E-mail social services and tell them the same things that you told us and see what they say. You are only 15. You should not have to go through this.

    I think I might just give it some time, and see if they keep doing this shit.If they do, then I guess I'll have to contact them.

    Out of curiosity... is this petition something that will be sent to a government of sorts? Like an anti gay marriage petition?

    I think you may need to stand up to them because they seem a little psychotic to me. Do your gay-bashing cousins live near you?

    Yeah, its a bit more then a little psychotic, on a plus side though, most people have been telling them to go to hell:slight_smile:. And no, they don't live too close, thank god.

    You're right with that one you will never be able to change them if they feel this strongly about it I found out the hard way with my parents. But just because they think being gay is wrong doesn't mean it is as long as you are happy and proud of who you are that is all thats matters. Most of all remember you are not alone, plenty of gay people have family who think it is completely and utterly wrong, I know because I'm one of them, so just keep you're head up and don't let them get you down. If you want to talk feel free to send me a private message.:icon_bigg Good luck.
