My Teen Coming out Journal - Coming out, #3

'My Teen Coming out Journal', written by Alan Cox, a UK based Life Coach, is much more than just a journal. It gives practical advice for teens who have decided that they want to share how they feel with family, friends or just those around them. It sets out a definition of what coming out actually means as well as some of the issues that might arise. This is followed by a list of fifty questions parents might ask in a supportive manner.
This will prepare the teen for that time. However, not everyone will be on the teen's side. To reflect that, there is also a series of questions that non-accepting people might ask the teen. Facing hostility can be a crushing experience for a young person. Therefore, by working through this area teens will be better prepared - they can put on their LGBTQ+ 'armour'. Finally, there is a section for self-reflection to help teens work through different situations.
This book is a powerful tool to empower teens, their parents and counsellors who might work with them.
