    I dont talk to them much about anything so i dont know if they are okay with the lgbt+ community,
    With not talking to them i am scared of their response and what they'll do i am not independent yet and i heard that you should wait incase they kick you out of the house my parents are split and if they both kick me out i wouldnt know what to do

    Well, you could bring up one of the many related news stories around these days and see how they react. That could make it easier in case they turn out to be accepting.

    I just wanted to know if this would be a good idea to find out what my parents think of bisexuality



    I told my parents that my 'friend' is bi and is having trouble coming out to her parents (im that 'friend')

    I haven't done this yet but i thought it might be a good idea, what do you think ?

    That sounds like a really direct way to find out (this is a good thing).
