SAN DIEGO (AP) — A 16-year-old transgender girl who spoke on YouTube about being bullied at school in Southern California killed herself, a support group said, raising questions about what educators can and should do to support students who change gender identity.
Taylor Alesana was constantly picked on by peers before taking her life last week, the North County LGBTQ Resource Center said.
"With few adults to turn to, and with no support from her school, her life became too difficult," the group said. "Taylor was a beautiful and courageous girl, and all she wanted was acceptance."

That is sad to hear.
While some people offer to talk to this child. Did anyone offer to do anything with this person? Go out for some lunch, play a game. Simple things that make life worth living.
Talk is cheap. Especially, when countered with abuse. Actually doing something for someone to brighten their day is so much more important than talking.
