On the topic of LGBT communities I think that it is something that must be more widely expected because of how it is becoming more of an accepted value throughout the country. While reading the book it mentioned how teachers should go through some type of training or educational class that prepares them for questions that are going to get them ready for questions that students may ask.  It is almost surprising how many kids are coming out nowadays in middle and high school, and I think that has something to do with all of the celebrities that kids admire in todays society's.  Role models to kids have become such a large impact on kids lives today and they really try to imitate what they do and how they act.  Being apart of the LGBT community has become more of a larger part of each community throughout the United States and I think that people are just unsure of how to come about it because it is out of the normal with what people are used to.  For me it was something that was never a problem in high school because there were teachers that students knew they could go to and not have to worry about it getting out, possibly even supporting them with the decisions they made.  I think it not only helps students, but it almost makes the other students accept it because if teachers accept it then it is almost making the other students have to accept that it is ok too.
