There are various ways you can break the news about your life to your parents, but one woman devised an innovative plan to do so.
A woman in US' Portland created a lengthy PowerPoint presentation to drop the news to her family that she¡¯s working as a stripper.
The woman, known only as Lex, put together a virtual slideshow for her mother and father that detailed various aspects of her stripping work - from the 'sex-positive' environment at her club to the large sums of money she has been making through her job.??
A short video of the family's living room conversation shows Lex taking her parents through her career choice.
"Before you start worrying or start getting excited, this secret pertains to my life. It doesn't affect anyone. The only reason I'm sharing is because I want the people I love and trust the most to know what's going on in my life and just be a part of it,"?Lex said. ?
"What the secret does mean - I'm talented, I'm cool, I'm powerful. What the secret does not mean - I'm pregnant or I'm in danger," she said.?
After much suspense, Lex told her parents the big news.
"I'm a stripper, as in I pole dance at a strip club, and I love it," she said.??
Soon after that, she opened a FAQ slide to calm her parents' concerns. She added it is a work environment that allowed her to express herself safely.
Once that was done, Lex spoke in detail about safety and the fact that the business has full anonymity. In the end, she admitted to her parents that her new career has allowed her to buy things she couldn't afford earlier.
"I really appreciate you being so forthright and sharing your life with us...it's powerful," said her mom.
