    From the time I was born I was raised by two lesbians, I didnt really understand it but I always knew my parents were different. When I would go to a schoolmates house I would see their family and see their fathers and instantly get attached to them because I had no father figure to look up to. By the time I got into middle school I started to see and experience the immense hate for gays and lesbians and I myself was accused of being gay by many. I started losing friends and becoming more and more depressed. I knew I wasn't gay but still I would get beaten by other kids and picked on daily. By the time I got into highschool I had 2 counselors I was taking prozak and still I couldn't cope with my parents being homosexual. I eventually began cutting myself because of it and came very close to killing myself on numerous occasions. I formed a mental wall from my parents and it lead me to channel all the anger from my life and the verbal and physical abuse from my peers into rage and hate for not only other homosexuals but my parents as well. By the time I was 16 I was forced to stay in a mental institution/rehab for my chronic abuse of illegal drugs. I was doing mushrooms taking ecstasy snorting cocaine and popping prescription medications anything I could get my hands on, anything that could take me away from my life and relieve my pain. Today I am 22 years old a highschool dropout but I have healed my wounds with my parents. My life will never be normal and even today I feel pain every single day and I blame most of my pain on the fact that my parents are homosexual. I know that I will never find out how my life would have been different if I had been born with heterosexual parents.

    Blaming your depression on the fact that your moms are gay is fucking asinine.

    I understand everything you said and why but it makes no sense to blame them. I can see why you did that but it doesn't make sense.

    Sorry your life experience isn't what you wanted. The number of young people disatisfied with what life gave them is great. Some folks are able to move along dealing with what life gave them, for others it sometimes is too much. I hope you make it OK.

    Wow, you sound like most of my friends from high school.

    Guess how many had a gay parent?

    None.

    Maybe your "pain" and "rage" has more to do with your inability to break free of the societal hivemind and do your own thing, and less to do with the environment you were raised in. I don't know you or your parents so I have no place to judge, but that is how it looks from here.

    Edit: And what, exactly, makes you think that because your parents' life/lovestyle didn't mold you into a well-adjusted acolyte of tolerance, with or without your assistance, that it won't ever work for anyone else? Monogamy didn't work for me, but that doesn't make it wrong in my view.

    Wow. How can you say you love someone and yet not support their sexuality? What is so wrong with being gay?

    And I didn't want to say this before at the risk of sounding harsh but get over yourself. I know I don't know you (nor do I really care to) but your life sounds like it wasn't that bad from what you said in your original post (if you take out the whole depression bit. Depression is a bitch though.) I've known people who have had it much worse than what you wrote.

    This is probably not the best place to post this, and you having gay parents should probably realise homosexuality is not a choice. Also the problems you are experiencing appear to stem from other peoples reactions to you having homosexual parents are accusing you of homosexuality.

    Wouldnt it be nice if everyone could get along.

    And blaming dropping out of school and substance abuse because your parents are gay is just pathetic, take responsibility for your life. I know that sounds cold and harsh, there are people out there with bigger problems than you, trust me on this one, and they dont just blame their parents.....

    You have parents that love and care for you, thats alot more than some people have.

    And hating people just because they identify with being part of a group is just bizzare. But then you do hate me so, I wonder why I am wasting my time writing this post, assuming such a bizzare post is written in truth.

    Oh, learn to use paragraphs.

    maybe you should move somewhere that's not so anti gay. im in college right now and there's gays left and right. noone cares. life after highschool is verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry different. i hope you can understand that the whole world isn't like what you experienced in middle/highschool. you're parents could've handled the situation better imo by moving because it sounds like you were living in a hardcore anti gay area. you're only 2 years older then me and from my experience in middle school and high school kids got bullied verbally but nothing serious like actual beating up like what happened to you. even through my high school years, there were gay kids in my school but they never got beaten up for it or verbally abused. i hope you can get past this. try and go to adult highschool and get into college. you'll see how things have changed now that you're out of middle/highschool. find a gf too ^^

    *rofl sorry moose, i just woke up and i r lazy - edit*

    I think this was the main problem here. I can't begin to understand how that felt but yeah something like that can really put a dent in someone.

    Well, I grew up with dysfunctional straight parents, certainly didnt fill me with respect for the institution of marriage

    My father is a drunkin alcoholic that use to beat us. You hear me crying about it? I had to deal with it all by myself and learn to just cope with the pain and got through it. When the time was right i left and i am now a lot happier.

    Don't let someone else’s actions dictate your life.

    Something tells me that you are making all of this up. And if you aren't, feel lucky you're not in an orphanage. As soon as you get out of that you have little to no support.

    I don't buy it either, sounds like troll work to me. If I thought it were true myh response would have been a bit more focused and cutting.
