Support her. Make sure she knows that she can talk to you (about boys AND girls). Don't tell her that she is too young to know, but accept if she changes her mind. Do not call it a 'phase', even if she does decide in the future that the label 'bisexual' does not fit. Offer her a safe space. Do not tell any of your friends/family without her permission, always ask first. Remind her that your love is unconditional. Don't shy away from asking her about her female crushes (celebrities' etc.). Most importantly, just listen to her and accept her.

Does everyone secretly despise LGBTs although many openly claim to accept and love it, including LGBT members and allies? Are there really people who see LGBT as of equal worth as heterosexuals?
