How to Facilitate a Conversation About LGBT with Your Teen [One Minute Feature]

Parents need to proactively facilitate a conversation about LGBT within their home with their kids. Today, I provide one brief example of how to facilitate a conversation about LGBT.

In the last few years at Shepherds Hill Academy, we’ve seen a tremendous spike in the number of kids dealing with LGBT issues. But, we’ve also noticed that these issues are largely culturally induced. I’m not saying that a very small percentage of our population doesn’t have real struggles in this area—maybe as high as 3%.

What I am saying is that since our nation’s infrastructure—media, entertainment and even our government—has been infiltrated with LGBT constituents, they’re now positioned to proliferate false premises and narratives that our kids are buying hook, line and sinker. I see kids turn from this all the time. So, keep abreast of the latest research on this issue and talk with your kids about it regularly.
