I'm so pissed!!! I left my journal here today. I didn't want anyone at school finding it. Biggest mistake ever. My mom went in my room, being her nosy self and read it! I came home and she talked to me about it. Her voice was low and almost a whisper.. Not that mine was any better.

"Who is this Scott, Mitch?"

"No one. And I don't appreciate you going through my stuff." I said to her. She grabbed my hands.

"Honey this is a big deal. You're writing your feelings about someone in a journal. And.. Its a boy?"

"So what?"

"Well Mitch the so what is that this isn't right. No one in our family is gay and you are not going to ruin that. Its disgusting."

So I now sit here in my room alone. My mom is homophobic, I just found out. It makes me upset and she thinks there's a way to "fix" me. So she's finding me a therapist. I don't need a therapist. I love you Scott!

My mom talked to my dad over dinner. I can't believe she did, but I didn't exactly expect her to keep it to herself. My dad hates me. I know he does. Why did I have to be born to such disrespectful assholes?
