Teen son accidentally records the moment Dad walks in on him doing his makeup: 'I'm always with you' [View all]

A father’s reaction to catching his son putting on makeup is so emotional.

The video was first uploaded by makeup guru Daniel Lemus on July 12, 2020, but is going viral over a year later thanks to a Reddit post.

No matter how much progress is made, members of the LGBTQIA+ community never know how their families will react when they come out or express themselves.

According to a 2018 Human Rights Campaign survey of over 12,000 LGBTQIA+ teens, 77% felt depressed, 70% felt worthless and hopeless and 77% said they heard family members say negative things about LGBTQIA+ people.

So you can only imagine how Daniel felt when, at 18 years old, he was caught off guard by his dad during a vulnerable moment: putting on makeup in his bedroom.
