A 9 year old killed themselves...

Because of fucking bullies. You seem to be more concerned about making sure that victims shut the fuck up in order to protect the bullies that fucked him.

You can't claim your sexuality until after puberty.

You can claim whatever the fuck you want, whenever, and change your mind, if need be. What the fuck do you care about it?

no he was referring to a recent find of a what is believed to be a tooth of a pre human ancestor from 7 million years ago in the Balkans

Pre-Human = Not-Human then. Still doesn't matter. The first homo sapiens are still from Africa.

I thought the oldest humans were from the balkans?

No, those were Neanderthals.

Seems really fishy.

How would a child that young know it at that age?

By having a crush on another little boy? I developed a crush on a girl when I was 6-years old.

why are these 5 and 6 year old kids already homophobes?

Because it's 'weird'. That is literally the excuse that anti-gay people have now.

None of my gay friends or peers came out in elementary school.

Usually because society taught them to be ashamed of it. Also, when a boy has a crush on a girl, or vice-versa, it isn't viewed as abnormal, so those kids are free to 'come-out' without any hangups.

Should 9 year olds be aware of their own sexuality?
I Don't think I was even self aware at 9

You never had a crush on a girl when you were in 4th or 5th grade?

A 9-year-old boy has committed suicide after being bullied for his sexuality, according to a Denver mom.

Jamel Myles just started fourth grade last Monday and was eager to open up to his peers after coming out as gay to his mom over the summer. And he looked so scared when he told me. He was like, Mom Im gay, Leia Pierce told KDVR-TV. And I thought he was playing, so I looked back because I was driving, and he was all curled up, so scared. And I said, I still love you.

Hoping to get the same support from his peers, Jamel went to school ready to share. He was gonna tell people hes gay because hes proud of himself, his mom said. Unfortunately, his classmates were not as accepting as his mother; she says he experienced bullying, which led to his suicide.

Pierce found her son dead in their home Thursday and points to bullying as the cause. Four days is all it took at school. I could just imagine what they said to him, Pierce said. My son told my oldest daughter the kids at school told him to kill himself. Im just sad he didnt come to me.

Jamel was clearly going through a very monumental transition. Not only was he going back to school with a major admission, he was also adjusting to his newfound femininity. I know you buy me boy stuff because Im a boy, but Id rather dress like a girl, Jamel recently told with his mom. The stress of this all could not have been an easy burden for a child to bear.

The combination of the child being already really stressed and making himself vulnerable to his peers was toxic, Barbara Greenberg, a clinical psychologist specializing in family and youth issues, tells Yahoo Lifestyle. He was proud of himself so he may have expected the kids to share in his excitement. But a lot of 9-year-olds dont know about sexuality and dont understand it. Sadly, he was hoping for something these other kids couldnt deliver.

This is exactly why parents need to teach kids that there's nothing inherently wrong with being non-cis, hetero, etc. WTF is wrong with these kids ?
