Another gay teen suicide. This 15 year old boy hung himself in a school yard. The article says he was taken off life support, but other news outlets are reports he passed away several hours ago.

This is really still happening!? How much longer does this have to happen?? In my own work, I witness kids calling eachother faggot and gay, and nothing is done, other than a glare or a talking to from me, the subsitute interpreter who doesn't know them and will probably never see them again.

It is disgusting that this is everyday verbage that is part of everyday dialog. Where are the teachers? Noon duties? Administration? I don't even know what to say other than let's not forget Jadin and figure out a way to stop this.
