It's a similar situation to when Gay people could finally admit to being in love with someone without being locked up.
It will all die down eventually.
I hope there's someone the kids at your school can talk to Rhian, some won't have accepting parents.
Ours isn't a particularly big school Tess
So yes it is known to us that
the pupil is well loved and
fully supported both within the family and teaching staff
But as can only be expected, amongst 12-13 y olds (who come with other outside influences) the student is being targeted
Yes those bullies will grow up, accept, move on or whatever but the here and now is hugely difficult for the pupil.
