You don't have to bring 
somebody down to prove a point
or to give your opinion on anything,
you don't have to tell me
anything, call me any names to
to make yourself, you know, relevant in
the situation.
People call me like, 'faggot' and stuff,
call me names and you know
things like that like you
know that's just me.
I've been very heartbroken since this happened,
and it just makes me very angry and hurt
that my daughter had to experience
something like that in this day and age especially.
Being a supportive parent is
the most important. If you're in the
opposite position I think that's when
you have to jump in and try to teach
your kids to respect other people's
feelings and rights and choices.
Stay strong. Don't listen to what people have to say.
People are gonna tear you down regardless
whether it was, you know, this isn't even
their situation,
whether you're straight, whether, you could even be
straight and people are still gonna not like me.
I feel like if I just do me and worry
about myself and get to class and do
what I have to do then I shouldn't really have to 
worry about what anyone has to say
