Earlier this year (after a year of attempted conversion therapy), Seth’s parents gave him an ultimatum.

He would either continue to attend the church that outwardly attacked him and his sexual orientation or he would need to leave home.

For his own well-being and safety, Seth chose the later. He’s been living with friends and working to sustain himself since financially.

His parents have refused to support him emotionally or financially because they deem his sexual orientation inconsistent with their religious beliefs.

Throughout this all, Seth held his head high and continued to work almost full-time while finishing high school at the top of his class as the co-valedictorian.
