US President Barack Obama has condemned psychiatric therapies designed to "repair" gay, lesbian and transgender youth.


Mr Obama's statement was in response to an online petition calling for a ban on conversion therapies. It gained over 120,000 signatures in three months.

The petition (closed) can be found here –> https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/enact-leelahs-law-ban-all-lgbtq-conversion-therapy


and one of the many articles on this is here -> http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-32227353
