lakmiseiru has decided Want to tell a parent something pretty sensitive that I'm worried he might react badly to. I'd like to do this on either my territory (i.e. here) or someplace neutral (i.e. on a trip) and definitely in person. Commencement is coming up and he's coming to that. Not sure when I'll see him next not at his house.
Told him over dinner the first night. He took it surprisingly (nay, shockingly) well and seems to have just kind of forgotten about it...

My choice: Tell him during Commencement weekend. His being happy over my graduation might show him it's not the end of the world. I don't want to keep this a secret any longer and I want to tell him in person over a cup of coffee.

Wait until some better time. It's Commencement, the grandparents will be here, and there's no need to stir the pot and possibly trigger a family Incident by doing so.
