[nabs-l] Bullying

[Preston Gaylor]

Hello Mckayla:

I am very sorry that this happened to you.

I got peer pressured and bullied a few times during my high school days.

A student took my cane out of my hands, and also 2 boys harassed me in the bathroom, and I needed to charge for them for it!

Allways tell an adult if something is wrong, don’t figure it out yourself.

Hope you will feel better soon!!!

Sincerely,

Preston from PA but now here in Denver at CCB

Hi,
  I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. If this should happen again,
go to an adult. Bullying is nothing to mess around with. I dealt with
it in my own high school. People jumped over my cane in the halls,
slammed their friends into lockers saying "I just saved you from being
hit by that girl!", called me names" and even went insofar as to say
that I was faking my blindness because I wasn't blind enough, whatever
that means (which, by the way, I only have light perception.)
  I hope you don't experience any further issues.
