How to Tell Your Family Your a Wiccan
This is a problem many people face, how do i tell them? I mean its not like you can go up to your highly religious Catholic mum and say ' mum, you know my study group thats been meeting in the front room once a week to study the bible?, well we weren't studying the bible.... we were studying Wicca, but don't worry we didn't kill any newts!' I dread to think what would happen. One of my friends parents would of tied her down and called a priest to exorcise her! Sometimes its best they don't know, but i think its better to let them know, tactfully, and making sure you have information to hand and arguments against anything they say that is bad.
My best friend was faced with a similar problem so we talked about it and decided to make a leaflet for her parents to read. They don't LIKE it, but they live with it, or at least they do now they don't think shes a satanist ( we solved that one by explaining Wiccans don't even believe in the Devil, so how can we worship it?!). Often printing out information about Wicca and giving it to them or leaving it lying around is the best idea. If you choose to do this feel free to write down information from this site.
