My daughter was obviously very affected by this. My daughter recently told me that a close girlfriend in Year 10 had started going out with another girl in Year 11. The school has an openly gay population including senior students (mostly aged 16 and over) as well as gay teachers and Policies and practices and an environment of tolerance which reflects that in our own home. Their high school has a sophisticated urban middle class culture, strong and clear antibullying
I am unsure how best to help my younger teens (a son 13 and daughter 15) steer a course through a very complex terrain. Surely most teens will be in this group at least until they experience a “full” sexual relationship with another person? My question is about the Q (Questioning) subgroup of L.G.B.T.Q.
