When my neighbor's kid was bullied for being a "geek" day in and day out. It affected her so much that one day she stopped eating in an effort to "disappear" from this world as she put it. My question is WHY did it take her parents so long to DO SOMETHING about it? Homeschooling is an option in this country. To all of you parents out there: At the FIRST INSTANCE, ACT IMMEDIATELY.
