minus-squareThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·7 months agoI mean I don’t even have that odd of a name but even in adulthood it’s made fun of occasionally. I can only imagine someone named after some fantasy story.

minus-squareAcemod@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down2·7 months agoHey, maybe realise by your experience that it isn’t the name but shitty people.

minus-squareAcemod@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·7 months agoSo why are we letting kids do that?
minus-squareThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·7 months agoHave you ever dealt with a bully’s parents? Have you ever even dealt with a bully? Schools tend to favor bullies. Mainly because their parents are fucking crazy and will threaten all kinds of shit and most normal people don’t want to deal with that.
minus-squareAcemod@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·7 months agoI was bullied at every school I went to. Which is where I developed my idea about how they operate. So yes I have dealt with a bully’s parent. And all you did was say thay I was right. Normal people have to deal with it.
