Re: Spin off to teasing...if you were teased as a child/young adult...
My parents just told me to ignore it and that I was a wonderful person. My parents put me in an after school activity which really encouraged me. I found new people who accepted me for just being me. When I was old enough, I realized there will always be people who don't "get" me, but there will always be others who do- and those are the ones I should spend my time and engergy on.
My DD has a friend who can be very mean (as mean as a 3 year old can get). At a party last weekend, the girl called DD "stupid" and hit her. I told DD that if someone isn't nice, say "that's not nice, I won't play with you anymore" and walk away. DD did this and put the other girl in hysterics. DD went on in the party and at the end of the party, let the girl apologize to her. But then they literally kissed and made up- so it was all good. Hopefully all DD's problems will be resolved so easily

I was too embarrassed to tell my parents I was being teased (5th grade-8th grade) so they didnt know until much later.
Same here.
I never told my parents. I just used to "fake sick" a lot, and once I hit HS, I would cut the classes that my tormentor was in.

There are stories of girls cutting and suicide.
been there done that! drug overdoses, binge drinking at 14, just a mess. eventually the bullies go away but your left with dealing with the aftermath. I am lucky that i just never was dead long enough with out someone finding me and reviving me or throwing up everything i ingested. By the time I was 21 i was completely fine with life and what had happened to me. I have low self esteem and do suffer from over eating because of it but its mostly controlled.
I remember i couldn't go to prom because the principle suspended me for not going to school one day and skipping out because i was told i would be shot in the head if i showed up. I explained i was being tortured by a group of girls who were two years older then me that they would follow me in a car and try to hit me with the car, they would call my house and threaten to slit my throat, toss dead animals at me or worse break into my locker and put spoiled meat/dead animals then say i was a devil worshiper and get the principle to discipline me. he didn't care. One of the reasons i slightly have issues with teachers/principles but yet i work for a college LoL They did such horrible things and got guys to harass me and say they would rape me and try to pull my clothing off in the hallways.
I found out years later one of the girls married an abusive man (the ring leader) was thrown down stairs, beaten, etc. I saw her in the supermarket about three years ago and i smiled at her. She knew who i was and her mouth dropped. I said I hope all is well and waved. To me that is when i knew really i was stronger then what i had ever thought i was.
That is CRAZY. What lunatics!
The worst I was ever teased was when I was little before I got braces-I was called Bugs Bunny. But I always had a big mouth and could defend myself
