A powerful message about the recent number of teen suicides due to LGBT bullying. A call for change

5. I hope that parents will show this too all their children, whether gay or not.
It isn't just gay kids that suffer although they have a tougher time than most others. Anyone with a disability or anything that makes them feel different -- a weight problem, severe acne, bad teeth, you name it, teenagers will ostracize the kid they think is weaker, different, "funny," or simply overly sensitive as a lot of gay kids are.

This is a wonderful video.
