So all the celebrities have gotten on the bandwagon and made their own personal "it gets better" YouTube videos, but these two I think stand out. Obama is being an exceptionally progressive leader by speaking out against bullying and Neil Patrick Harris makes a great point about growing up. NPH says that when we are in high school we have this strong urge to blend in and be just like everyone else in order to fit in, but as we get older, the opposite tends to occur. We seek out individuality and what sets us apart and makes us stand out amongst the crowd. He said in due time we will learn to embrace and even be proud of our individual differences, rather than be ashamed of them. So, gay, straight, confused, bi, transgender. Take heed and take heart!
