Coming out

I have completely Christian parents and they're not too fond to the idea of transgendered pepole and I have tried coming out at one point about 1 1/2 years ago but they said immediately that I'll grow out of it, it's just a stage, every person goes through it, it's just evil speaking to you. I need help, everyday this feeling of me being female becomes stronger but they said i was born a male and I have to stay a male but that's not the real me. The real me is female but some just don't see it that way. Could people that have had the exact same experience help me through this and not negative comments please.

I totally understand you and support you. I have a nephew that came out to me when he was but 12 yrs old.. I love him like hes my own son.. His father does not want anything to do with him, and through love and understanding his father learned to accept it. Growing up in a hispanic household is hard on us for sure.. I spoke to my nephew many, many times and told him that a parents love is unconditional no matter what... Stay strong and stand your ground and explain to your parents its not a fad. Be proud of who you are and if you feel more and more female everyday then you are ... there are many support groups for young teens.. Please don't be scared to ask advice or seek friends that are in the same situation. Hugs to you and i will pray that all goes well for you....
