Depends.
Are they homophobic or transphobic?
If they are, do you have a place to say if they don't want you there anymore?

thanks
It's pretty much impossible to say as we have no idea about what your parents are like.
Given that you haven't said anything about any prejudices of theirs, I'd assume that they don't have any serious objections, and answer that you probably should.

So did they accept him in the end or do you mean that they made his life difficult?

If you're not living with them and don't mind cutting them off, then there is no risk
i do live with them

Hey!
If its a safe space and environment for you to come out, its a great idea if you are comfortable!
However, if you feel like the environment you live in is not safe, have you got an alternative place you could stay?
I hope it goes well for you!
yeah
