It sounds like you have a very close relationship with your mother. I think you should sit down with her and calmly tell her, she maybe shocked at first but i'm sure she will be glad that you have told her. I have 2 sons myself and would be happy that they have told me rather than worry about my reaction. Hope everything turns out well for you

i will answer with two suggestions and a experiance - personal experiance- my sister came out last year that she was bi sexual to my whole family on christmas at the family dinner. she was 15 now 16 the famly was shocked at how she done it and my mum was really understanding and thought it was aphase but myself know it is not! some family members did not believe it and basically pushed it to a side..but mymother was very very understanding more so our father heknew before any of us..it is one of the most hardest things a person can do especially if the family is as close as you are saying..
DONT-announce it in anger (could be a result of doubts and she may think you can not talk to her) ,
dont get anyone else to do it for you,
DO!!- speak to your mum in a calm area
invite her shopping or to have a pamper day and explain how scary it has been for you to tell her also ask her to support you and not be mad..
hope you happiness JL!

Coming out with what? What do you want to come out with? You'll have to be less vague. Is it homosexuality? Do you want to come out of the closet?
