Since being online since 2001 on an almost daily basis, I hear constant stories like the one you are about to read. The more disturbing ones to me are the ones that involve teens having to live in silence, or have been kicked out of the house. My younger sister came out as an adult and our biological family did not respond well to it, but after some time, they have accepted it even though we know they still don't like it.
