Imagine being a 17-year-old in love, but unable to see your significant other due to the current global situation. That's exactly what happened to one teen who found solace in Skyping his 18-year-old boyfriend. However, his parents, who aren't too thrilled about him being gay, have banned the boyfriend from coming over to their house. So, when they discovered the Skype calls, all hell broke loose. 😱💔
