If you know they'll be accepting, why are you nervous? You should do it in any way that minimizes your nerves. For some people, that means writing a letter or doing it in a way that's not face to face. Or you could engineer a situation where you will be more comfortable, whether that's in public or at home. Just do whatever will feel the most comfortable!

You have every right to be nervous before you tell them, but just remember at the end, a HUGE weight will be off your shoulders. All that anxiety will be healed. I suggest any of these! http://www.buzzfeed.com/hnigatu/24-awesomely-creative-ways-to-come-out-of-the-closet :)Good luck, hope it goes well!

Explain what's in your heart. You're not alone and I'm happy to hear they will be accepting. Plus there might be a chance they already know. (My mom did! Ha ha) What better day to do it than National Coming Out day! Go for it!

When my mum found out, it took such a weight off my shoulders! If there is a chance that they will find out, it's a lot better that you tell them because then you can properly talk about it and your parents are more likely to want to help you with any of your relationship problems etc. You could try and hint it and drop it in conversation, for example if you're in a relationship, mention your partner by their gender. Writing a letter also seems to work well for a lot of people as it's easier to express how you feel about the whole situation and it gives your parents time to reflect on what you have said. Good luck!
