While this is a tricky one, remember this is a life changing decision here so think carefully before you admit this to your parents, friends, or loved ones. For your parents, request a talk with them at a time that suits all of you then get ready for the conversation. To start, I suggest you tell them there is a person/are people that you love/care deeply about and (depending on your situation)want to pursue a relationship with them. Say that they are the same gender as you and admit that you are gay/homosexual. No easy way to do this, but this could be a good strategy.

First you need to find out what might your parents think about it. It's possible they don't have any problem with that and you are worrying about nothing! Then, if you found out that they won't be happy with your sexuality, you should take your time and slowly in order to avoid problems try to talk and make them understand that you're the same son/daughter they had, your love is the same and you are a respectable person who can make his/her own decisions.

Tell them normally, tell them in a way that wont hurt you, or them. It's who you are, if they love you, they will accept.

I think you should call one of your parents, the one who understands you better, and explain it to them first

Depending on the situation, you can come straight out(Heh, straight), or call them, leave a note, any way you feel comfortable. It's your choice.

While there isn't a set way of doing it, understand that a parent's primary role to support their children without judgement. Depending on your comfort level, it may be helpful to approach them one at a time and let them know your concerns in being open about it.

Any way that feels right. Take your time and make sure they know your serious. Try and say it in a way that gets through to them.

First, you have to make sure it's safe for you to come out. If you suspect they might kick you out or treat you badly, you shouldn't do it. And if you are sure it's the right thing to do , try to speak to them face to face and in a mature way. Don't expect them to be supportive right away but give them some time and don't try to pick a fight when they say something offensive because that'll just make matters worse. Good luck !
