BULLYING!!!

I've been harassed and bullied for most of my teen life and even some of my adult life for being skinny, I have terrible memories of being called names like stick, minnie mouse, skeleton, and lots worse. one time I was told that I was so thin it was obscene!that boys would never like me. that I should wear pants so no one would have to see my boney legs. it truly scarred me for life, but I rose above the taunts and cruel words and I have spent a great deal of my life in the defense of the under dog and little guy who can't defend themselves. I pray that no one, be it someone struggling with weight gain or the inability to gain weight does not have to bear the taunts of ignorant people! There is a newscaster back East who has been bullyied about her weight, I applaud her courage to stand up and say to a bully,YOU DON'T KNOW ME. We must teach our children how much words hurt , to be kinder and caringTO.STOP BULLYING!!
