      I guess so…not sure there is ever a reason though, I think people can always find something to pick on if they want to!

      I was lucky to have very secure, grown-up friends who didn’t feel the need to make me feel bad about myself. I wasn’t bullied. My advice to anyone being bullied is to always remember that people bully others because they’re very insecure about themselves and don’t know how to deal with that. Rise above it and ignore it if you feel you can. If it’s really affecting you and the bullies are being threatening tell someone. It ALWAYS helps. (I was never bullied for loving science either but then I’m fine with admitting to being a geek) 🙂

      Actually I was – it’s because I lived in a different country and when I came back home I talked in with a funny accent which was considered too weird by my classmate. But that was years ago and didn’t really affect my life 🙂

      I think everyone feels bullied at some time or another! I have always been a bit nerdy (shocking i know!) so I’m sure I got a bit of stick for that at some stage…
