    Guess what names you'd be called if you were short and skinny? If you had a limp and wore thick glasses? If you had red hair and freckles?

    In other words, kids your age pick on each other. They're all trying to find their place in the world and in society, and if they can puff themselves up by putting someone else down, they will -- and they do ALL THE TIME.

    If you feel comfortable in your own skin and have no huge problems with moving and running and bending over and sleeping and with other aspects of life, ignore the little bleating whiners. And look at them. I'll bet they're short or ugly or frizzy-haired or have big ears or crooked teeth. Then look around at the mall and find me the perfect man or woman. Even the movie stars get their imperfections airbrushed in photos and have lots of make-up and special clothing put on them before public appearances.

    Be proud of who you are and how you look. You sound just fine to me.
