    Hiya, I'm in same situation kinda sept I'm not bi I'm gay. It's better if they hear frm you rather than someone else. Just kind of try and catch her at a good time, She wont care I'm sure ur still her kid. Unless she doesnt like bis.

    Tell her when you're ready and only then.

    When you do tell her do it in a manner that implies without adding any shock factor if your parents are likely to recoil. Say you and your g/f are going out to the movies or something over dinner in a casual conversation. She'll understand the message just fine.

    If they are quite open about sex then just say it matter of factly. Mom, I'm bisexual. Just like that.

    I agree with Bret....just tell her when you are ready....and judge it simply by how you think she will react, no matter what she will still love you...

    I would only tell her if you start dating girls, if you are bi and you are with guys then its not a big deal and really none of her business, but if you want to tell her and want her to know then it would be ok. You're old enough to make that decision yourself and she should just accept it, but if you start dating a girl it would be good to let her know probably.

    for once i actually kind of agree with Justplainme...in his telling you to wait until you are older to decide. Seriously I think every teenage girl goes through that bi-stage...all of my friends (even the goody goody christian ones) have gone through it. Just wait a little longer until you know for sure, and even if you do I don't know if your mom would want to hear it from a 16 year old. wait until you're 18 or so at least and then have an intellegent convo with her...and go easy-she might take the news a little shockingly....Good Luck!

    i think you should tell your parent when you are comfortable.... i told my parents when i was 14 they were pretty understanding. they keep revisiting it every once and a while to make sure its what i want.... they should be understaning and love you know matter what. just wait till you feel like you can tell them and your comfortable with yourself
