My thing is, if gay people, who grew up seeing heterosexuality all around them, still ended up being gay, then why would straight kids seeing homosexuality turn them gay.

Relationships: you don’t get to make friends outside of a school environment because you can’t go anywhere and then when you finally do get to an age where you can go out, it’s too late because everyone already has their clicks and friend groups

Moral of the story is: Rebel. Your parents can either hate you now and get over it or you can be 60 hating yourself and blaming all your problems on people that are probably dead by then

Career: What you want to do with your life is out of the question, you’re going to school to do what they want you to do because “money is more important than happiness” which means your stress will 10x worse because it wasn’t even the path you wanted in the first place.

Discipline: when kids with strict parents finally get to go off on their own they have a harder time knowing when to rein the fun in. Since they aren’t accustomed to going out or being able to do what they want they tend to overdo it which can lead to serious problems
