Every kid gets teased at some point for something, weight, nose, glasses, braces, bad haircut, freckles, height. What bothers me I guess is that instead of accepting that you are who you are, kids are going to more extremes to fit in. Like high schoolers getting plastic surgery because they think a smaller nose or bigger boobs will help them in life. Or that they need to fit into a size 2 and go to extremes to get there. Or working out for hours and hours to have a hard body, in gradeschool. Granted all of this has existed to some extent, but it does seem to be a much larger problem now than when I grew up.
