Teens faced by bullying often consider suicide as a viable option for ending their personal sexual identity stresses. One teen, Andrew Viveros (AKA Andi Viveros), a transgender teen crowned queen of the McFatter Technical High School in Florida school prom, is speaking out to teens that have faced the trials she has lived through, including bullying in her own high school. Recently crowned the first transsexual teen girl prom queen, Andi is taking advantage of her title and making a statement to gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transsexual teens across America. Now part of the It Gets Better , Viveros is among celebrities such as President Barack Obama who has already created a related public service announcement to the gay and lesbian teens.
