I think telling your parents can be the hardest.
I know people who are grown and parents still don't know.
I plan to wait til I move out so I they don't put me in counseling.
Anyways...
Okay so one day at lunch my friends and I were in the quad.
My friend ,Jasmine, wasn't feeling to good so she was laying down on her girlfriend ,Melanie, lap. They weren't doing anything. But the counselor tells the dean and principle then sent to the office are sent to the office. Yes, it's against our schools rules to show PDA(public displays of affection) but c'mon. Anyways, they have my friend write a statement, and talk to the dean and principle. A few days later they ended up calling their parents. Neither of their parents lnew of their sexual preference. The teacher that sponsors our GSA at our school said he'd do all he could. Mel's parent's threatened to take her out of the school. We're still not sure if they will. The thing that unfair. Is that just moments after they sent my friends to the office. A girl is sitting on a guys lap, and the counselor just says to get up, nothing more. Later we read in the newspaper about something similar happening in another school. My school is kind of over protective and all. But the could have just said they did PDA but didn't have to say with who. And all this for laying her head down.
Is this just my highschool?
Have you heard of anything happening at yours?
Should your school have the right to tell your parents of your sexuality?
It's suppose to be our choice,...right? I haven't told my parents for a reason.
What are your thoughts?
That must be the stupidest thing Ive ever heard.
How is sitting on someones lap even a public affection.
Everyone, especially the girls sit on each others lap all the time
and I mean friends and firends not even people going out.
The only people who sometimes get told off at our school
Are people who are hard core macking out and it doesnt matter who it is.
How can they make a rule about not showing public affection
That is the most retarted thing I ever heard of personally.
I mean I understand not whant the sucking each other faces off
and the groping etc. thats just common sense and not appropriate.
I cant beleive her parents threatened to take her out of school that is
Just not right.
I dont think they have any right to tell anyone your personnal preferances
I mean what buisness is it off theirs if you choose to be with a girl or boy
If you can get the people who were boy and girl on each other to say
The punishment they got in court compared to your friends punishment
you can sue them for discrimination(In Canada for sure, in the US mostly likely)
This kinda stuff happens to often even if she cant sue the school for any reason
(no money, no support from an of age person)
I would do something about it raise awareness about it. Anything.
thats ridiculus.
