Wow. Thanks John for posting. “They were wrong” – After 30 years and I don’t know how many hours of counseling – its still hard to grasp and believe that.

I have always hated bullies.When I was a senior in high school,I went into one of the bathrooms at school and found a couple of the tough guys spreading toothpaste all over a kid who was the poster child for geek. Thick glasses,braces,very shy. He had that nervous little smile that some kids get when they know they are being picked on . To make a long story short, my Dad put me in the service within a few months. That was 1970. One of the bullies went into insurance with his father and did well, the other opened a service station. I havent slept well in 40 years, walk with a cane and am a “loser” . So there it is,the winners and the losers. We learned our lessons. And there in lies the problem, the lessons need to be changed.
