i think if the child was comfortable enough at school(!) to put a sign on the classroom wall saying he was gay, but had not told his parents, that is a really good clue that the parents might not take it very well.
(although i personally would have loved it if anyone else in the world could have told my parents besides me. that was an ugly scene.)
Possibly the smarter thing would have been to bring the parents in and provide a safe space, with counselor present, in which the child could tell them himself
