gods i fucking cried

This is really important, especially now during the holidays. You owe nothing to nobody if they make you uncomfortable.

Lol I never said I wanted to let a kid be tortured by bullying. I meant more for general situations, like if a kid was nervous about going to a sports practice for seemingly no reason, just anxiety. Then the kid just needs to learn to cope with the anxiety and not to exclude it from their lives because they get anxious about something. I've never fully coped from my bullying, and I still don't have the best confidence from it and I still have to take medication as well, so I know how damaging it can be. I even said in the post that some situations are okay to leave, like if you're getting bullied at a party. Yeah it's not cool to let your kid stay there and be forced to take it. It was meant for more general situations that can help a person grow, and not be constantly afraid of the world. Kids have to learn to be strong enough to not let bullying really effect them, but I know it's very difficult for people, as for myself. Don't even say I want kids to be tortured from it, I would never want a child, or my own children to be feel like they're being tortured from bullying. I just meant that kids shouldn't feel afraid to put themselves out there and go through uncomfortable situations. It just shows them that if they can get though one uncomfortable situation, then they most likely can get through another. I agree that having strength to know how you should be treated it important, so if a kids feels that the best way to deal with bullies is to walk away, then they should do that. That's a situation where it's totally acceptable to walk away. I wouldn't want my kid standing around being bombarded by bullies, I would be proud if they walked away or even confronted them. I just felt that the original Tweet could be taken vaugley and that people would think they can just leave situations whenever they feel like just because it becomes a little uncomfortable.
