Oh alright, moonie!!!
Just to give you an example of being the " outcast", so to speak, how would YOU feel if YOU were the SHORTEST girl
in the gym class and no one picked you for a team mate for
any sports???????????
Well, that happened to me alot. The girls use to sneak up on me outside while we were waiting for the teacher, and picked me up and threw my shoes over in the BOYS tennis courts while they were playing. They thought that was soooooooooo FUNNY!!! Some days they would TICKLE ME til I wet my pants, too. Even the teacher got into the act. I hit a HOME run PLAYING soft ball one day, and while I was running home, the teacher grabbed me and twirled me around and then said go on to home plate. Ha.
I did, of course. After they found out I was a power hitter in
the area of softball and baseball, they all wanted me on their team. It didn't matter then.........they just saw a WIN coming for them!!! There's been other things too. When you are the littliest person in the class, other kids that are tall think they need to HELP you with Volleyball, and Basketball. I can't tell you how many times I got STEPPED on by someone trying to reach the ball for me. I use to get mad and tell them to back off.....I want to play too.
Oh, life aint easy for a boy named SUE!!!!!
