[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm probably an outlier here, but I am pro-active in making sure my kid has whatever is needed in terms of not getting made fun of and looking cool and so on. This is because I was bullied mercilessly as a child, to the point where I actually have PTSD because of it. I will literally do anything and everything to eliminate any possible reason for my kid to get teased or bullied or excluded or whatever. Naturally, my kid could not care less what he wears, and would go to school in a paper bag if I let him.[/quote] The problem is that it’s ineffective. If he wears the “right” clothes, they will tease him about his name, his appearance, the look on his face, etc. Bullies target weakness, not just kids in cheap shoes. [/quote]
