Untrue. I was bullied by my paraprofessional and some of my teachers in school and not one of them recieved any consequenses whatsoever. And yes, the video has already been posted in another thread. |

| I have no problem riding a bike (except that now I basically can't because my OCD is too severe). But I needed training wheels for what my parents had me brainwashed to think was a long time. It really bothers me when they have the "you're a big girl you should be able to (fill in the blank)" type o... |

| Sounds like hidden tension, and that's not ok that your parents try to make it look like everything's all right. I hate that, but I'm not sure what to say because it's like parents are bigger than God and you have to scream pretty loud before they listen. My advice: Do not "Wait and see." This will ... |

| Maybe some sort of "supressed memory" of a traumatic experience in school? Maybe it wasn't just the kids. Maybe your teachers were just as mean to you. Physically, sexually, or ESPECIALLY emotionally or verbally. School is basically a prison where fear is instilled into the minds of young people by ... |

Have you ever considered phone counseling? I work with a phone counselor and he's the best therapist I've ever known.
Note: I apologize for making duplicate posts (which I have already deleted). I did not realize that my first post had gone through ok. |

| There was never any denial in my family that I'm autistic but what bothers me is when they always side with the opposing side whenever I have a problem. And never let (and I mean let) me get angry! Your mom did exactly that--and it's downright cold and disrespectful. Parents need to be supportive! R... |
