Or wooul you put them in a school that accepts gay? I am a gay teenager and woould rather be in a school of all gay but i want to see it from a different point of view? Thank you

Answer 1

heck yeah. Even though, as far as I know, my children are straight, most of the gay people I know are more loving and accepting of different people in the human race than most straight people I know.

Answer 2

I didn't know there were all gay schools...sound like a decent idea... I am not sure there are any schools where some students are not bullies, some students are not evil. I think an equally good idea might be to send your child to karate school! No body messes with someone who can beat the sh*t out of bullies. I would certainly want my kid to be able to defend themselves. I have two sons, neither is gay, but before they went off to high school, they both went to Karate school and learned to be pretty good at the game. Neither were bullies, neither were harassed either. Good luck

Answer 3

The thing about being in a kind of "all gay" school as a teenager isn't going to teach you anything about having to make it on your own in the world after you graduate. You'll never have a sheltered little world of all gays all to yourself. While it'd be nice for the tough time of being a teenager, I think it might turn out worse in the long run. I'd want my kid to experiance differences in people from the start, so the possible negatiuve aspects of being gay wouldn't smack him in the face and overwhelm him right as he emerges into the world he has to live in for the rest of his life.
It's a nice idea, but probably not a truly beneficial one.

Answer 4

I have never heard of all gay schools. I know of schools that have gay clubs and safe areas for gay kids. But that doesn't matter so long as your kid feels safe in what ever school he is in. And if he feels threatened, be the parent you are supposed to be and make it safe for him - even if that means moving or home-schooling.

Answer 5

I would not personally put my child in an all-gay school, but I completely understand it.

Public school is hard for a lot of people. It's hard for any kind of minority. The alternative is segregation. All-black schools. All-girl school, all-boy schools, home-schooling.

I think it is important that we can cope with others. It's defenitely the rougher ride, but public schools give you social tools that a segregated education just can't. It also brings our world a little closer understanding each other. I having gay students in the public system raises awareness, helping their cause in the long run.

Answer 6

School is way to important to make a gay/non-gay issue. I would perfer to put my child in an accepting environment with great staff and a track record of excellent education standards. Ideally the school would/should have a public declaration published on its stand with respect to sexual orientation, as well as a program to back that up to improve tollerence by fellow students. BUT all that said, its the education that's of primary concern.

Answer 7

No, I probably wouldn't look for a all gay school, I'd be more concerned with my daughter/son getting a good education instead of being accepted by people especially if their not even gay.

Answer 8

He grew to become into probable stressful with reference to the way you will react (after all, it would not say something interior the Bible approximately lesbians, whether it says that 2 men being in love is a sin). the superb ingredient you're able to do is have an prolonged communicate with him, tell him you nonetheless love him no rely what his sexuality is, and tell him which you will help him each and each of how.

Answer 9

I would think that either way would have good points and bad...

I went to public school and got harrassed alot...
It was HORRIBLE.... but good for me.

I now know that the world is not happy little fluffy bunny land.

I know how to fight. I am as tough as nails and no one insults me or gives me a sideways glance without getting an ear full.

I am in college now (an art school) and doing very well... it's important for kids to deal with reality and not be shipped off to private schools that cater to their own ideas...

that's my opinion.

Answer 10

And I'm sorry to here that you have had such a hard time with your life decision if you think this would be right for you then talk to your parents and see what can be done. Hopefully you very understanding folks that are very supportive.
