Whenever I walk to school a group of kids from my school look at me and giggle and whisper to each other. Am I being bullied? My parents have just split up and someone texted everyone I know about it. Now I’m getting nasty texts all the time calling me a loser. Am I being bullied? I can’t control my movements very well and when I get excited my hands jerk up. A group of kids were mimicking me at the football match. Am I being bullied? Am I Being Bullied?
