On the one hand, Lawrence King felt comfortable enough in his school environment to come out at such a young age. On the other hand, many young people who have unconventional sexual or gender orientations are subject to merciless teasing (and in this case, ultimately death) because of attitudes that schools have not done enough to curtail.
