Reading about all those school kids who are committing Suicide because of bullying brings back some very unfond memories about my time in hell, AKA school. From the time I entered Kindergarten till the time I graduated, I was picked on and generally tortured because of my weight. I have been fighting and losing my battle with weight since I was 9, over 30 years. I was called all sorts of names, beat up and all that other good stuff. The teachers and other school administrators did nothing to stop it, even though I gave them names and details. All they did was say "ignore them, it'll go away", which achieved absolutely nothing. My parents did what they could, but when the other kids parents were called into school, all they did was say "how could you even believe that fat pig? My little angel would never do anything like that. Needless to say, I had no friends in school, and my life was affected a lot. Because of this, I have become severely shy, and have people problems. Yeah I did think about suicide a few times, but thank God I'm a coward. Something has got to be done about bullying in school, but the solution seems to be far away. These kids need to be believed and get the support they need, and these bullies need to be punished as much as they can be.
