This tip offers some steps to take that may be helpful. One of the things to keep in mind, is to find a time when your parents have time to talk and you are all calm, so you can have a conversation.  If the conversation begins to escalate, take a break. It's best to continue at a later time when real communication can take place.  This news may take time for your parents to fully digest and understand, so be patient with them.<br></p><p>We want you to know we are here for you.  Let us know if you would like to talk.<br></p><p> Stay Brave, Keep reaching out.</p><p>Sincerely,<br></p><p>Larry – Counselor<br></p></div>17
