Out of the Broom Closet

Hey. Bit of advice from the girl that got kicked out of the broom closet. It is better if you tell your parents in a way that works for your family. A lot of parents do in fact think Wicca is Satanic and while this is a sad fact it is a true one. But the issue is that often times parents don't want to listen and so sometimes it is better to just write them a letter and leave it on the coffee machine before heading out to school/work in the morning. As someone who got kicked out of both the broom closet and the rainbow one at the same time(we have a weird floor plan)you can't practice in secret.

Practicing in secret leads to a whole new set of issues. Because in order for you to actually practice you need materials and while for some this was probably different I grew up in a home where I didn't go anywhere unless I had an adult chaperone and so it was very difficult for me to get my candles, cords, and crystals (oh my), because my mom would always ask why I was getting them and I'd have to come up with some weird lie as to what I was doing and then when my parents found out there was a huge distrust between us for many years after that.

Point it, you have to do this your way, friend. Hate to say it but the only thing we can do is give a few helpful tips and hope you will be returning to say it went well. May you have more luck than I did.

-with love, Tea

wow, thank you guys so much for your advice. Just last night my dad saw my alter while I was panicking and pushing him out of my room. I'll gladly take your advice.

This is what I get from all of you amazing people:
Tell them gradually or you'll make so many more issues for yourself.

Again, thank you all so much.
Blessed be.

Well, my dad is a heathen.
