May the milk have always just gone off for those administrators, my God.
My high school (Catholic) quietly, after seven girls (~5%) of the graduating class crossed the stage visibly pregnant, updated the handbook to say that student mothers would be asked to find another school as it wasn't the right environment for them there. I don't think LGBTQ was even on the radar (although a few of my classmates came out later, and most of the girls I knew have been enthusiastically supportive and loving, so I guess the Sisters' "God loves you just as you are" was more effective than the Pope's "you are bad and should feel bad.")
The things we do to teenagers in the name of control sicken me.
