Jane Fonda wants LGBT youth to know they are not alone

Wed. May 4, 2016

Hollywood actress Jane Fonda had a message for LGBT youth at the season 2 premiere of Grace and Frankie.

"Just know that you are not alone," Fonda told gay glossy The Advocate. "That all around this country, there are places that you can go to find support and help and advice and love. You are not alone."



Fonda added that young people coming out to their parents should not give up hope.

"Do not despair, no matter what your parents say. You've got to understand it can be very hard for parents to hear that their son or daughter is gay. But it's their problem. It's not your problem. Don't despair," she said.

Grace and Frankie, which revolves around two women whose husbands left them after coming out, returns on Netflix for its second season on Friday, May 5.
