"It Gets Better" Channel

[Ruby the Liberal]

I have just spent hours watching the testimonies on this channel. While not GLBT, I can relate to the core message as I was not one of the "cool crowd" in high school. This message resonates & really needs to get out not only to our GLBT community, but to ALL kids that it DOES get better.

I stand in solidarity.

1. Cool...

I wish there had been more resources when I was young. There were 0. 0. 0.

2. Thank you Ruby.

And it's not just the gay kids that suffer from being different. All this BS needs to end.

I have no answers on how to get this to stop but am in awe of the

message "we have been there - hang in there - kids are immature assholes - it WILL get better".

BRILLIANT message on Savage's part and well needed.

:woohoo:

4. I've been telling the same thing to every kid I've ever known for the past thirty years.

It's over as soon as it's over, go your own way.

Then some asshole proves the HS mentality continues through college. WTF?

5. Sooo many stories about how HS was the end.

We can only keep hope alive for these kids.

They need to know that this is just immaturity and insecurity. Don't fear them - pity them.
