Back to the shark tank: Gay youth in school



What are gay youth facing as they return to school. A New Hampshire teacher posed the question that has been on her mind for many years.

We take a look at what awaits gay youth in the classroom:
  • The emotions of the night before day one.
  • Learning to hide and the ensuing damage.
  • The moment of discovery...when a parent realizes a child is gay.
  • Making friends and socializing and dating, very cautiously.
  • Overcoming direct and subtle attacks on self-esteem.
  • What is minority stress and stress on steroids?
How to order Healing the Brain: Stress, Trauma and LGBT Youth.
