Coming to Terms
Alone in his college dorm room, a young man struggles with his familyís reaction when he is pressured into coming out to them over the telephone. Damian sinks into depression as he realizes that both he and his family have an arduous journey ahead if they are to heal old wounds and accept his sexuality.
Coming to Terms demonstrates how denial and blame can damage relationships and is an excellent video for youth, counselors and families.
