Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

According to data from the 2015 national Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), of surveyed LGB students:

10% were threatened or injured with a weapon on school property

34% were bullied on school property

28% were bullied electronically

23% of LGB students who had dated or went out with someone during the 12 months before the survey had experienced sexual dating violence in the prior year

18% of LGB students had experienced physical dating violence

18% of LGB students had been forced to have sexual intercourse at some point in their lives. And acording to an article from the cdc, when lgtbq+ children are exposed to bullying it can not only have a negitive impact on the child themselves, but i can also have an impact on their learning. Hope this helps
