Middle school is no place for sissies.
For some reason, I’ve dealt with quite a few bullying situations this year in school. Sometimes it makes me want to roll my eyes and say something like “just walk it off” or “rub some dirt on it” … but usually, it just makes my heart grow. I was picked on a lot when I was little, and it’s undeniable that this is simply a tough time of life.
There is one thing that I love about it, though … most children in junior high haven’t yet learned how to internalize and ignore their pain and emotion. How I wish that it could stay that way for them!
