DD2 in Y6 nearly 12 sent me a WhatsApp message the other night telling me she was gay and attracted to girls. She's opened up to a few close friends at school (which might explain the lack of after school invites recently).
Having spoken to her, it's really who she is and the smile on her face when I spoke to her about who she fancied more out of Gabriella or Sharpay then her pretending to just fancy Troy to make us happy was priceless.
