There isn't ever a good reason for bullying. I dealt with bullying throughout my "childhood" and teen years. It was absolutely horrible and emotionally scarring.

I have long, very curly hair & when I was in school, straight hair was very "in". Back then, there wasn't straightening irons or other hair products to help. I stuck out like a sore thumb & HATED it! Adding cruelty, to make me even more miserable, they called me E.T. eyes. I guess because my eyes are big? And they said that they're far apart too. Kids can be SOOOO mean ~ it's a cruel reality & there isn't anything funny about it.
