have certain relationships

with the other boys

and I was like,

"Nothing's changing."

You have boundaries with

anybody that you work with

whatever you do, just because

you're gay doesn't change

the way you're gonna have

a relationship with a kid.

I showed him a

picture of the toy car

'cause a friend of ours has one

and he wanted a

rainbow car of his own.

We wanted one

because we like yours

and we just think

it's really cool.

It's something for him to

show his little friends

and perhaps help teach

other kids that everybody

should be treated equal.

There are some routes

that know me by name because

I've driven them

more than others.

I'm a substitute driver.

Most of the time the way the

conversation will happens is

they'll have conversations

among themselves.

Tallying up, giving me boy

points and girl points.

They'll talk about how,

"She sounds kind of like she's

a boy but there are all these

"other things about her that

are feminine" in so many words

then finally one or two

brave students will come up

and ask me if I'm a boy

or girl and I'll tell them

that's not the question

you should be asking.

The question you should be

asking is whether or not

you think I'm Ok to drive

this bus, whether or not

you think I can

transport you safely.

My aunt got a restraining

order against me

to keep me away from

my little cousins and

to basically keep me

from turning them gay.

I have three little cousins

who I love and adore.

They are like my

other little sisters.

We were really, really

close until then.

I also have a niece that

was like a daughter to me.

I helped raise her when

she was born, my sister's a

teenaged mother so the whole

family helped with that.

My niece was like my daughter

and it really killed me because

within the restraining order...

My whole family

lives within like

virtually a block

radius of each other.

So there is absolutely

no house on that block

that I could go to

that I wouldn't be

in violation of.

Not my parents house I

couldn't go over to anything.

Any family functions, I

could not see my grandma

who lives next

door to my parents,

my aunt who lives behind them.

We literally live in a

block radius of each other.

It was covered under

the protection that ...

And I'm not completely

sure how it was legit that

they got this order

but for some reason, the

safety of her children

was at stake because I was gay.

You guys have been

persecuted for so long.

Why shouldn't you be

allowed to educate people?

and what a great way to educate

people with a bug, the car,

kids would love it and

kids would understand

and I bet you bottom dollar

when you go in to those schools,

there are so many people

who have same parents

that they call

mommy/mommy or daddy/daddy

and people just don't know it.

I have two moms.

Sometimes I'll be in school,

I have a step mom also,

that's my dad's wife.

And they'll go around and

they'll say I have three dads.

It's Ok, it get's

annoying a little bit

but I try to get through it.

I'm on my school's

archery team

so my parents came

watch me compete.

And my friends were wondering

if my parents were there.

So I said, "Yeah my

parents are over there."

And they were like,

"Oh who are they?"

And I said, "Those are my moms."

And they were like, "Oh,

your step mom and your mom?"

And I said "No, they

are both my moms."

And they were like, "Oh!"

It can kind of be hard

because sometimes you do lose

friends or people

who you thought you

were friends with but

I guess they really

weren't your friends

in the first place if they don't

accept you and your family.

I called my mom up just

to see what she was doing

and I went to go

hang out with her.

So I come dressed up like how

I am, all manly and stuff.

And she doesn't like that.

And we were sitting on

the couch and she's all

far away and distant.

She just like, "Well I just

don't want you to hit on me!"

There's nothing I could of

said except for, "Hi mom."

I mean how does that

mean that I want to

[Erin] So you think maybe

because you like women

she just thinks in her

mind, just like how a lot

of people think, that

you're gonna hit on them?

Yeah, they think that gay

people don't have a type.

I think people do have a type.

You're my mom so of

course you're definitely

no way in hell gonna be my type.

There is no way in hell I

would find my mom attractive.

I could say my mom is

beautiful, that's different

but I'm not like,

"Damn, check out my mom!

"Look at her ass, it's so fine!"

No, I'm not gonna

do that to my mom.

I have a friend that

I grew up with that

he knew he was gay

when he was young.

Most of us kind of had the

idea but he came out the closet

when he was about 16 and

his parents

sent him on an LDS mission and

basically just told him that

if he didn't come back from

the mission and not be gay

he was gonna be cut

out of the will.

And very wealthy family,

[Erin] Did he go

on this mission?

He did go this mission,

he came back early

and didn't do the

whole two years.

And he came back

gay, imagine that.

I identify as gay.

[Erin] Oh you

do Ok, all right.

Did you come out when

you were younger?

No, it's still not

out really to family.

So if they see this,

hi, surprise, surprise!

[Erin] You found out

your son was gay recently?

Yeah, he came out

in January 2012 at 13,

which was about a

little over a year ago.

[Erin] How did he tell you?

Well we kind of discovered.

I was snooping

through his journal.

'Cause he left it out and I

was really worried about him.

He was becoming really,

really depressed

and I just had a

feeling to read it.

And he had put some

comments in there about

some boys that he

had found attractive.

And it completely threw me off.

I should have seen it coming,

knowing my son but I didn't.

So it was probably a

couple of weeks before ...

We would hint around and

we would say things like,

"If there was ever anything

that you wanted to tell us

"feel free to tell us and

we'll love you no matter what."

And he just didn't and he

didn't and finally my husband

just asked him and he just said,

"Jordan are you having

feelings of homosexuality?"

And at the time he was

kind of leaning against me

and I had my arm around him and

I could feel him start

to tremble and start to

shake, 'cause he was crying

and I could feel him nod

but I couldn't see his face

and my husband said he never

seen a kid look more terrified.

He's this little 13 year old

boy and I had had two weeks

to kind of prepare so there

wasn't the shock for me.

And I think that was

a big blessing for us

because I could just ...

At one point I put my

hands on his cheeks

and I made him look

at me and I said,

"This changes nothing for me.

"I love you 100 percent,

we will get through this.

"I'm so proud of you,

you're a great kid.

"We'll figure this out and

we're by your side 100 percent."
