Everyone needs love in their life whether from parents, friends, or teachers they need it. Teaching this is important

start with love, grow from there, never fails -->
It's important to challenge the notion that only heterosexual love is ok or normal | We've gotta do more for GLBTI youth
A2: Teaching about love is also teaching about differences, tolerance, and respect - too often attributes missing in society.

I wish comps were more spread out so we could have more opportunities to go to all of them
Definitely! Saved it to do later.
