Being True
Although I was never the popular kid in high school, I was never a victim of bullying and I don't remember being a bully. I guess my high school was just too big so I just got lost in the crowd. I pray that my child isn't a victim of bullying as she goes through school. It's so heartbreaking to read these YA stories about kids who are so horrible to each other. I hate that peer pressure and society has allowed it to escalate to where it is now. It's sickening that we aren't teaching our kids to be better people.I really enjoyed this story. This boy had to continually move schools because he was constantly bullied. What was wrong with the school officials to let that happen? It burned me. But he found a light in the darkness in the one person who was willing to be his friend regardless of what everyone else in the school thought. How awesome is that. And they fell in love. Even better.
