It seems when we have children we just start to see things so differently. Thanks for stopping by. That is a great story as well. I always wonder if one day the bully would grow a conscience.

There are people that when I think of them I just get a bad taste in my mouth. It's been OVER 20 years and I can't imagine that they are the same. But we are so impressionable in high school and we remember all of the pain and sadness that we felt that was inflicted on us by others. I met a mommy friend at the sandbox once who shared with me that SHE was one of the bullies in high school. She seemed nice enough now and she talked about how sad it made her feel to know that she had been terrible to other people so long ago. She would never have the opportunity to share with them just how much pain SHE her self was in and how much she had changed. As we ended our day, she picked up her little girl and we said our good-byes. And I told her that I hope she will be able to pass on her wisdom to her daughter when it was time for her to go to school. Great Story with a great point.

I did a post recently about being stuck in high school because no matter what...to those you went to school with you will always be THAT 16 year old person. It doesn't matter how much time has passed. For some reason people always think of you that way. kind of wierd! It’s so funny how this works.

When I went back for my 20 year reunion - yes I'm old, hardly anyone knew me. My husband couldn't believe it. I told him I was just nondescript back then. I came into my own after college. Anyway, found your blog though TMC. Great read, can't wait to rad more. Following you now. Have an amazing evening. Jamie What a great post.

Freshman year was great b/c I knew all the hot senior boys. They had been friends w/ my brothers. But that was the highlight of H.S. But if Facebook is any indication, I guess I wasn't completely forgettable. Pondering the 20 year reunion, but I won't be able to show off how well I've bloomed if I prego!

I don't think I was mean to a lot of people. Sure there were some that I wasn't nice to. I can't remember once being mean to someone "just because." I know I stuck up for those who wouldn't stick up for themselves. I didn't allow the "uncool" kids to be bullied by others. I didn't let someone pick on the "fat" girl. I couldn't stand it. I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now. My kids know I will take away every name brand thing they have, every video game, TV, Ipods, cell phones, if I ever hear them making fun of someone less fortunate.

Most of my friends were not in my school so, except for a few people, I didn't really interact with those people. All I can say is that some of them hurt me. I have forgiven but I will never forget.

Too bad that doesn't really change at all as people grow up. Thanks for sharing! @POM honestly kids are just plain mean! And it is sad the only time people are nice is when they want something.
