Why are people so rude?!?

Question

I'm in 8th grade and I get made fun of for my height and my weight. I am 5'8 and a little on the chubby side. How can I learn to ignore the cruel remarks?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Well my view on this is just to ignore the teasers. If they still won't stop, just tell a teacher if this is happening at school or a trusted adult.

Remember, you're much better than the mean people teasing you. Just hold your head high and make the best of the situation!

Answer 2

Make fun of them lol that's what i do , don't let people get to you  

Answer 3

Pretend it doesn't bother you and laugh with them. Show that you are confident and don't give a s**+ t about what they think (you shouldn't anyways) sorry if this was a lame "be yourself" and that c**p answer but if you show that you are happy and fun to be around they won't care what you look like.

Answer 4

There is someone always chubbbyer than youu haha.

And also if you feeel good about yourself why sould anything else mattter?

But if you want to loose weight than do it.

Answer 5

There isn't really a way to ignore them, you just have to learn to accept them as meaningless babble. People bully others to try to improve their own self-esteem. Pathetic, but sadly true.

Within a few years they'll all be as tall as you, so you won't have anything to worry about.

Forget about them, they're really not worth it.

Good luck!

Oh, and there's nothing wrong with being tall!! I'm 5'8" and if anything, it's a blessing. :)

Answer 6

don't worry they'll be jealous of your height some day, haha I wish I was 5'8

:]

but anyway, the most you can do (if you don't want to get in trouble with the school) is smile at them when they say things, believe me I'm an expert at pissing people off, when I smile and laugh at someone when they're tyring to get me mad, it gets them infuriated :]

but If your not worried about getting in trouble you could fight them, but I don't recommend that :]

Answer 7

In another year or so you will be tall and beautiful. And they will be so jealous and want to be your best friend.  Ignore them now and then.  

Kids are rude because no one took the time to teach them manners.  

It is hard to ignore them.  But if someone is agreeing with them they lose their fight.  "Yes, I am tall, I will be playing basketball maybe.'  "You are right, I am big.  I am not done growing either, I probably will be 5'10 and weigh about 130 pounds when I am done.  I might be be a model you never know . IF I am you will be sorry you were not nice to me.  I remember faces "

Answer 8

growing up overweight myself, I know exactly how you feel sweetie. The truth is, you need to stand up for yourself, or say something. If you just ignore, then the comments will eat u up inside. So if someone says hahhah you're so ........ You say, well at least im not an ugly #$@# like u . and then walk away. Or just be like, i want to see u laugh at me in 10 years when im gonna be on the top of the pack and youll be valeting my car. At the rate youre going youre not gonna get  very good tip. Or if they have lots of acne, be like- i'd slap you, but then i'd get my hand greasy. ok good luck

just think to yourself 'who cares what they think!?' :)
