I tell my kids all the time no matter what you are people will mock you and
Ridicule you. If you are fat/skinny, tall/short, redheaded/bald, wear thick glasses, have braces, as he came home upset as he was teased for being Asian called Jackie Chan or something as he was probably only Asian in his school. So I went on this long diatribe about how everybody is made fun of and he asked if I was ever made of. He caught me off guard and The only think I could think of was that I was made fun of for being the smartest. Needless to say it didn’t go over too well but I also told him I was made fun of for being a goody two shoe or maybe a mama’s boy etc

But people say and do hurtful Things Of the time and it’s best to be like a duck and just let slide off your back.

What other people say can hurt but what they say doesn’t change who and what I am.

I also tell them that they need to remember what it feels like when someone says things like this and hopefully they will never say something hurtful to anybody else
