    In my experience it’s usually the ones that stick out and aren’t seen as “cool”. Not even nerds, just people that are different in one way or another.

        No? Not everyone got bullied when I went to school, and I’m sure it’s not very different nowadays.

          My point is that everyone is “different in one way or another”, so we’re all fair game. That might be getting bullied in front of everyone for being a stereotypical nerd, or it may be another clique talking about you behind your back for dressing preppy and hanging out with the “cool kids”.

            I think it depends the most on whether the child has a group of friends or not.
