I hope that kids who are told to "have a voice" are also the ones being bullied, so they refuse to take it.<br /><br />Cris - thanks so much. I learned a bit of that joy of life from you. I watched the way you just let yourself be yourself and it gave me courage to do it too!

Kids today are told to "have a voice", and they think that means it's okay to ridicule others.<br />Marianne Stephenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05277593485137508765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4239994548028607606.post-40838640698242500422012-11-21T17:27:29.209-06:002012-11-21T17:27:29.209-06:00I agree Chandra.

We know nothing about him except his size and they're tring to humiliate him because of it. And humiliate him in such a public venue. Chances are he didn't post this meme (or is it mimi? I always forget) of himself. It's sad that some need to put people down to feel superior. Chandra Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13621620111107276052noreply@blogger.com
