Let Sleeping Dogs Lie
When I was 18, my parents discovered my gay porn stash. Unfortunately, they reacted in completely the wrong way; confronting me with it, expressing revulsion at what they'd found, and making it clear that they wanted that material out of the house.
One failed marriage and almost ten years later, I finally confronted them with the truth...and no one was surprised. Had they not said a word or had subtly told me that they supported me no matter what, ten years of pain, and the lives of me, my ex-wife, and my children would have been so much better.
