Times have sure changed since I was in high school. How wonderful that youth today, all youth, are beginning to have an opportunity to grow up unafraid.

His parents were and are great. I only wish they were the norm and more gays were not shunned by their families because they are gay. I am fortunate because my family was and is very excepting.

Great article. It shows that even with loving, accepting parents it's dreadfully difficult for many young people to face and accept their being gay or lesbian.

Thanks for the link!
