I'm a lesbian and I'm proud of that for the most part, but what am I supposed to do about coming out to my family. I love kids and have 7 nieces and nephews between my two older brothers and I dont want to lose that. My family however is extremely homophobic. I have one gay cousin and one bi cousin and when they came out most of the family disowned them. I will be the first one to admit that I'm not as strong as my cousins. I am scared to death that I will be disowned and kicked out. My family also happens to be my employer. I watch all the kids in the famil for a living and live between two family members homes. My best friend says that I should tell them then remind them that if they fire me they'll go back to paying 1,000 or more a month on day care. That doesn't help with the fact that I'll be homeless though. I don't know.
