Kids with ADD, for example can be exposed to the most cruelty of all. Years later the jerks who come back to apologize say they did it because their mothers were in mental hospitals! Why weren't they?

Bullying people with learning disabilities is wrong. It always has been and it always will. I was bullied constantly in school, but what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Try to find something positive, choir, photography. Something positive. Go out for sports, exercise get those endorphines flowing.

Talk to people everyday don't become shy. We are fallible human beings. When someone rejects us it's them who are visualizing thoughts in their head, we don't have to believe what they say is true.

go to school for my final two years if only I had some more support in lessons in which I needed because I had difficulty in doing written work due to my cereibal palsy and too because I am hard of hearing too. But when I left school and got my gcses i got a d in art and a g in geography I think I got poor marks due being bullied at school and lack of support in lessons at the start of senior sch. I believe eve in day in age that integration into mainstream schooling has to happen fr the start

have downs. Like other special needs children I was bullied badly I carried on being bulied in silence for 2 yrs until one day collapsed on the floor my mum found me and town her what was wrong it upset her deeply. So after I told she asked for meetings with the headmistress who told my parent people with LD don't have the concept or too understand what bullying is so for about a year or so I was on and off school for about 3 yrs as the bullying was not being dealt with. the only way I would

It's so unfair, just because they have a disability that makes them have trouble learning and participating and talking to other people and writing we have to bully them!
