It must be quite nerve-wracking for an adolescent to tell her parents that she is gay. 15-year old Laurel decided that it would be easiest to tell her parents with a cake and an accompanying note. Neetzan Zimmerman tells us what the cake and the message were and what the response of the parents was.
As a lover of puns, I enjoyed Laurel’s approach.
“It must be ….”
Yes. So I asked my son myself when he was 14.
Yes, that torte us all a lesson!
I’m glad that she could rise to the occasion and hope that her parents didn’t crumble and flour their relationship as oven happens.
That gateau be the sweetest coming out ever!
@MNb:
So how did that work out?
I got a strong denial. He sounded a bit harsh to me (not too surprising given his age) so I continued with:
“Well, it’s not a big deal. You know your granddad (ie my dad) is gay, don’t you?”
On a more relaxed tone: “Yes, I know.”
