| Summary |
People are identifying as gay at younger ages than ever before. How is it playing out in the school yard and classroom? And what does it mean for the kids themselves? Some teens say they feel pressure to declare their sexuality one way or the other. And researchers say same-sex attracted young people are far more likely than other teenagers to self-harm, become depressed, attempt suicide or abuse substances. Meanwhile, schools are grappling with how to deal with everything from complaints of bullying to requests to bring a same-sex partner to senior year balls |
