i can relate to the girl in the movie, i was never raped but i got laughed at and teased/embarrssed in school by teachers and students, for no reason.
Oh don't worry. In the book, Mr. Neck, that's what they call him in the book, gets caught for his mouth because Dave brings in a tape recorder and his parents sue Mr. Neck.
She's totally right about talking about the american history, how we talk about for nine years... I'm homeschooled, but I've been in public school from preschool - 8th grade...
@satya019980 I actually think the opposite. Kristen Stewart's problem is that she doesn't really display a lot of emotion in her acting. This movie is perfect for her, because her character is supposed to be silent, depressed. This is the only movie where I approve of her acting.
I was molested more then once by the same person about 8 and 7 years ago. I never said anything, I was 6 and 7 at the time, I didn't know to say anything. It still affects me today, I barely talk, and when I do, I'm extremely quiet. I don't like people staring at my body, so I hide it. I hate being the center of attention. And I don't like getting close to people, physically.
I wish I would have told someone, maybe I wouldn't be so messed up now; but I didn't and now its too late to tell.
It's never too late to talk about it. You've already done so with this post. I don't care how old you are or become--you are never to old or too young to start talking. And trust me, you should.
@VQian1997 Being raped is something that haunts you forever, you can never just go on. And yes she can blame someone, the disgusting bastard who raped her.
@VQian1997@VQian1997 I'm sorry but Unless you've Gone Through that I don't Think You should Be talking!!...I was Raped When i was 7 and i can tell you It talks Alot of Happiness Out Of somebody!.I still think about and its been 7 years..its not something you can get over Quickly and Really she can blame somebody...and Please tell me how shes Gonna make herself Happier?! I didn't talk much then or Smile for that matter...You're way outta Line man!
I so agree. You know with the borders closed we wouldn't have so many immigrants taking all of the jobs, and we would have them. I'm not racist, no way, but I do believe that if we closed the borders there would be more jobs for Americans.
@VQian1997 You bastard! How dare you say "life goes on" about someone who was raped. I'll let it sorta slide because you're 14 and don't know what the hell you're talking about, but don't talk shit about something so traumatic and horrifying. Have you ever been raped? ...Didn't think so.
@XxRebornNationxX When we were reading Speak kids in my class said stuff like that, it drove me insane. We have a speach contest at my school, mine's going to be on how insensitive people can be about rape. It's horrible.
@VQian1997 Sometimes people choose not to fit in. This movie is about Melinda learning to trust again and open up. For a lot of people, this is hard to do on it's own let alone after a traumatic experience. Some stay to themselves because they don't know how to open up to others and some stay to themselves as a defense mechanism. Each person is unique and it's that uniqueness that needs to be respected
@Sassafrasishxc I agree. PTSD is awful. I have it because I was bullied a few years ago. Cyberbullied AND bullied face to face by people I thought were my best friends. I was bullied by my whole grade. :(
@widowrouge jesus...I was bullied thru my entire childhood,and abandoned by my parents. I never thought about PTSD...but II do grapple with anxiety & panic attacks.
@CassieAnnaCary Oh, my god, that's awful. I'm so sorry about that! But PTSD is awful because I remember little snippets of things and the feelings don't go away. I also deal with anxiety as well and panic attacks. Sometimes I feel like I want to hurt myself...it's awful :( But I'm able to deal with it better now. How about you?
I'm over 30 now, and I take medication for the panic & anxiety. I have OCD too, and often have intrusive thoughts, as do you it sounds like, just urges to do things you simply do not want to do. I'm better at controlling that...to some degree. I know there is more to my own *personal* trauma,and also like you, I get snippets of a certain time in my childhood, but my memory will not reveal *exactly* what...so I don't go there. Someday I will...
@VQian1997 it's traumatic. don't ever say something like that again unless you've gone through it all, and then gotten through it. it's alot harder than it looks.
@VQian1997 "I know she got rapped, but life goes on. She should make herself happier." These sorts of comments make people who got raped feel insignificant, it makes it seem as what they went through was something normal, when its not. These people have to go through that emotional roller coaster that's how they cope as life around them keeps moving.
@VQian1997 that's quite possibly one of the most ignorant, insensitive things i've ever seen, and one that displays no understanding of the effects of rape.
@XxRebornNationxX me too, she accused be of: stealling, lying, cheating, "disrupting the order" and for being"too smart" ugh, i. dispise. her. :(...well, i did a long time ago in 9th grade, but i ant in school no mo!! hahahahahaahahahaaha!! yeeeah
@windhowl22 I hear that! Mine was two-faced. He would act nice and cool, but then his psuedo-racist side kicks in on a full moon. He once gave almost the same type of speech about "real Americans" like Mr. Neck did and I just laughed.
so inlove with the tree that she drew on the blackboard! its soo wonderful! other than that.. i love th book. this is my first time seeing the movie.. so. thank you for uploading it. <3
I love high school so much! well, i mean, if i was in malinda's shoes, I would be out of the school in like 20 minutes. but i LOVE MY SCHOOL SO MUCH!! FRESHMAN YEAR KICKS ASS!!!!
