1. - I'm not sure about in America, but where I live, unless I want to come out to everybody who lives near me or that I went to school with or have it spread on facebook, then the lgbt clubs arn't an option. Seeing a psychologist is another option, but genrally if its the parents that have to pay the bill, they want to know why your seeing them.
2. Teens don't like talking to their parents, we are more likely to fight and argue then answer questions, and being told that your parents love you isn't "cool"
but I agree with parents educating themselves about being a lgbt teen, since they (normally) don't have a clue what we might be feeling.
In my old high school, being straight, skinny, blond hair and a tan was "normal" and if you didn't fit into that, then you got bullied.... but being bi was cool, just as long as you didn't do anything gay, if you did anything gay, then you were bullied
and thats what it feels like to alot of these suicidal teens,
no one listerns
no one cares
no one will miss me
everyone will be happy if I'm gone
(I may have gone off topic )
but the only way to prevent suicide is to seek help, even I know that..... but its finding the right sort of help thats hard to find but can save yourself when you find it
(and to remember that when you go to your 20yr high school reunion that you bullies will probably be fat, balding and in a shitty job)
