Let's Help silverthehipster! by Bully Free Zone

@silverthehipster: "When I was younger I was a Little Chubby. The kids at school would make fun of me to the point where I would just stop eating. I lost most of my weight, and had to go to the hospital. I can't gain any weight back so everyone makes fun of me for being so small. I also have a very low voice, and this one teacher got so mad she threatened to expell me if I didn't speak up. All the kids just laughed at me and I almost started crying."

I wish there was a quick and easy fix like "just stuff your face until you gain weight", but it's not always that simple and, even if you did, kids tend to find other reasons to bully. So let's tackle this from multiple angles. One is of course, if possible, trying to gain weight, but also another is to become more accepting of yourself at the size you are. If you try tuning out what others think of you, you'll begin to discover that you have your own inner strength. You can make that inner strength through weight training style exercises. When it comes to strength, size doesn't always matter. It can also help you feel more secure. If things are still out of hand, report it to an authority figure. And obviously I don't mean that one teacher. You need to have a talk with that teacher after class and explain that you can't speak louder and that it may be a biological issue related to why you can't gain weight. If the teacher doesn't listen, you can go to the princ.ipal.

You should not have to tolerate threats of expulsion and you will need to find the strength to stand up and defend yourself. I understand that you are sensitive by nature and I've actually been in a similar situation, but you need the confidence if you're to make it through school. It's a terrible place sometimes, but it's required by law you go. So, you can imagine at home how conversations may go and act them out to prepare yourself, but in the end you'll need to find that inner strength I know you have. Plus, crying at home can help. *HUGS* Hang in there. It does get a little better over time.

^I agree with you guys.
Sigh... I just hope that people stop making fun of others because of their physical "problems", well, I'm hoping that they just stop making fun at all. That's true, I've been made fun of because I wear glasses and because I have reddish-blonde hair. Sometimes, when I was at 6th grade(primary), I wanted to change my hair color. I now accept myself how I am, it makes me feel different from the others who are trying to be more mature, but they aren't getting so. You should accept yourself how you are(if not already of course), you'll get some self-esteem, and always believe in hope! Also, something I did to one of my bullies yesterday is:
He went to talk to me and said: "Hey reddish!"
I just continued what I was doing without listening and looking at him and he just walked away. If people tease you like that you should try it out.
*Hugs* I hope things will get better! :3

To the people people making fun of you just say "I'm not fat? good insult bro...." The teacher on the other hand is all talk, I have a very low and deep voice too so I know how you feel. If she says she's going to expell you for that, make a fool out of her say "go ahead" cause teacher don't have the authority to expell you and the "Main authority figure" won't expell you for talking to low. If its just the sensativity thats getting you, I guess try to toughen up some how. (no offence)
