Quote: Jim Jackson said: To the teens I've spoken with who think they may be gay or bi, I usually suggest that they really think seriously about the consequences of them coming out. If I were to give a general piece of advice, I'd suggest to teens that they stay in the closet until they're 18. Not just because they should fear going off to some Gay Reformatory Concentration Camp, but because of their parents' possible rejection. Str8 or gay...it's easier being a sexual being when you're out on your own and/or legally an adult.
Good advice.
Do you counsel gay teens on a regular basis or was that just a one time deal with the letter to the magazine?
