There's a ton of social pressure and more top-down propaganda around the topic.
Be kind and pick your battles. God knows the truth and we have to trust in divine justice. If you have to go to the mat, use evidence such as the suicide rate.

From my perspective, it would be based upon the parents' judgement.
