He dosen't need to tell his family, if there's a chance of him being kicked out, what's the point? tell him to wait till he's at least he has his own place before telling them. I never understood young gay kids that feel the need to rock the boat, there is no point.

stacyhelper agony auntYou are most deffinatly not a bad friend, at the end of the day like you said it's a "very personal family issue". It is not your place to help him with this he has to be brave enough to do it by himself no matter what he think's his parents will do.

Just tell him that you think he should do it by himself because it will be a life changing expirience and that he needs to face the change and consequences on his own.

Just remember your not going to be there 24/7 for him as much as you might want to be.
