I'm Cheyenne baker and this is my story

I really liked this video and respect your strife to change society around us by improving teen's lives and letting them know that they deserve to live like everyone else. Good luck on your organization! This is how they are started!

3) Lastly, I do not agree with your parents restricting you from your friends when you started the Meadows. That does not solve depression -- it makes it worse. You need to strive to be around other people more when you are feeling depressed.

A couple notes I took while watching this:

1) The teacher should not have called you out in front of the class and asked, "What is that on your arm?" If he had a concern, he should have pulled you aside after class or simply referred you to the counseling office.

2) It also annoys me that the counselor did not warn you before they told your parents. I understand them having to tell your parents as they are legally obligated to, but it is just respect to inform you first.
