Freak I don’t have that many, but I guess the one that affected me the most is “freak.” I’m tattooed and its most visable to others. Its not my face or anything, but I constantly get stared at and judged. I’ve had it shouted at me when I’ve been out with my son and I was treated like an outcast at a mothers’ and toddlers’ group. No one bothered to speak to me or even acknowledge my wee boy. It hurt. As all my tattoos have a story and meaning behind them. I know now I’m unique. This makes me who I am and what I’ve been through. I let people stare and whisper now. At least when I’m older, my son can tell people, “my mummy had a colourful life.” To me everyone is beautiful. xx - Saranne Coates
Ok well, when I was younger, I was always called ‘big ears’ and ‘lanky.’ I even got spat on by the boys up around my area. Another time I was held by four boys, got hit and kicked by two sisters who live beside me. I was bullied right up until year 11. Now I am moving into year 12, and hopefully everything changes for my last year so that I can focus. Being bullied I never worked my hardest. - Sophie Campbell
