Might as well just be straight up with them and let them know rather than beating around the bush.

DUDE YOUR NOT GAY. KID AT UR SCHOOL PROBABLY CALL YOU GAY SO MUCH THAT YOU TRICK YOURSELF INTO THINKING THAT YOU GAY. 12 YEARS OLD ..C'MON MAN YOU NOT GAY. YOU WON'T FIND OUT UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A SEXUAL EXPERIENCE LIKE THAT. THAT WILL LET YOU KNOW FOR SURE.

Odds are is that they know something is up. Just tell them you need to talk with them.
"both of you (mom and dad) might not like hearing this but I can't go on pretending to be something i ain't, I'm gay"

i think that you should not tell your parents at that point in life. i think you should wait to tell them because if you tell them now then they might just think its a teen thing and they will just not take you seriously. maybe you should tell them after you finish college, when you can take care of yourself and are out of the house

You're really too young to be focused on something like this. If you ever feel too scared to talk yo your parents about something, you can pray to God. That will help you so much. It really helped me. :)

There is no way to ease, just tell them how u feel point blank.

You can't really ease into it. I think the best way to do it is to be straight forward and just say it. And I like you honesty kid. You get an A in life :)

Just tell them how you feel and why you feel that way, or just hide it until you think you are ready. Also, the above answer that you don't know is wrong; if you are gay you are born that way you can't just decide to say oh I am gay and now I like the same sex. Also, maybe try re-posting this in the LGBT section; lots of people there have gone through this and may be able to help you by telling you how they did it. Good luck!

It's best if you show that you are gay by doing things and saying things most gays would. It's more easier that way because they will notice and then think that you are, but wait til you are a bit older because they may find it hard to believe you because you are 12. I'm sure it'll be surprising for them, and if they are homophobic in anyway, maybe you can change their mind about gay people because after all, they are your son, always will be and they have to be the best parents that you know them as. They will eventually accept you and love you as you are and would want you to be happy right? Be really close to them as well, try and gain their trust and note down what they are like.

U know some guys think that but its proven that u dont really know untill u hit 14. i mean ya u might not be gay or u might be gay, idk but if i were u i would wait until ur 15 and then if ur still attracted to boys then tell them then.
Hope i helped!!!

i think you're too young to fully know. I thought I was a lesbian when I was younger b/c no boys would like me. I'm 14 now and I know I'm not. I don't think you fully know now.

Ask them how they feel about same sex marriage. Then ask your dad how a Dick in the *** feels.
