    It is sad, but my daughter was shamed in front of her entire 6th grade class about her weight, by her teacher (at SHS)!! She said to her "you need to reduce" in front of her classmates (my daughter is Fil/Am and her body shape was much different, and more developed, than her filipina classmates were . My daughter was extremely hurt by this from a teacher who should have been there to protect her from such comments. Needless to say, we had a big meeting with her teacher and the principal which resulted in the teacher crying and apologizing, and we also insisted she make a public apology in front of the class, which she did. I am glad that, perhaps, there might be something put into place to protect those who are belittled or taunted based on their looks or appearances.

    Interesting comment. My Daughter is a very stout Gal and built like a brick S$%T House. When she was pestered about it I just told her that ( In life when your a Walnut, you need not listen to the Peanuts.) Go out into this World and become your own castle. No-one is number one, and last place "no one evens hears about:smile:............She is currently a Police Cap. inspector and is as strong willed as the many most willed I have known. (Hence the saying........ "Get a grip") ...best regards.

    AsColdAsAlice (or similar name) from Dauin, and the "stop cursing" to you? I found it hilarious!

    But on the issue of people making comments to others, I don't care a sh*t what people think of me because they don't occupy the space I live in and know nothing of my life - their opinion is worth zilch.

    As I quoted once before, Bob Dylan wrote in 'To Ramona': "...there's no one to beat you, no one to defeat you 'cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad"
