Student Scenarios
Scenario 3 – Janeen is an African American student in her junior year of high school. She has been skipping school and her grades have been dropping for the last month. Her family is putting pressure on her to improve or she will be transferred to a private boarding school in another state. Janeen’s father is a Baptist minister and the family is very active in the church. Janeen tells you she was “born in the wrong body” and feels like a male, but is too afraid to tell her parents because they will disown her. She has been bullied for dressing like a guy.
