KayAnn, I am so sorry to read how dreadful it is for you at school, it must be so hard for you to cope with. I don`t have any answers for you, how I wish I did. However, the one thing that shone out of your posts was this I am SO proud of you, and your likeminded friends also. While there are still `kids` like you around there is hope for the future.

love and many hugs
Chris
Well said Chris! KayAnn, life is so different these days from when I was your age. Yes, we had kids smoking in the bathroom but that was about it. Drugs were not on the scene yet. (Now you can see just what an old fogey I am). In fact, back in the days when I was in high school so much was different. There was also a dress code that included dresses or skirts and blouses - no slacks or jeans believe it or not! It was a much different time and I don't know how I would cope with life as it is today if I was growing up. I am happy that there are other kids there like yourself who are not falling into the smoking/drug trap. You all will be the better for it down the road!!!
