Happy Saturday!!! Today is the day I finally get around to taking that box of donations I put together over a month ago and dropping it off. It’s just been sitting on the floor of my closet for weeks and weeks and weeks.
First thing to talk about, Angie told the most upsetting story in comments and I need y’all to read it so we can be an Angie Support Team:
“Only few days ago my son had a very unpleasant situation with the kids from his class. He was bullied in the elementary school, so it’s hard to him to be open. Now in the middle-school the situation was way better, and he became a little less shy but still wary with the peers. Last year he used to go out with some of the boys but not often . Few weeks ago he felt he wants to go out with them again and tried to enter the group but without success. Once one of the guys invited him, but later when my son was almost ready he wrote: Sorry, the other guys told me you can’t come.
We were angry but what can we do? And the other day, there was our Saint Patron feast here and literally all the town was in the streets, and my son tried again to go out with the group (even if he was anxious because of the last rejection). At first one of the girls was like: Ok, you can come. But when he was searching for them , they hid, didn’t answer the calls, and in the end wrote: we decided that we don’t want you. I was there in the middle of the street when he came heartbroken, and when I heard the story I was so angry I started crying. I cried when he felt asleep and even now when I think about it. The teenagers can be monsters.”
Oh Angie! And more so, Angie’s Son!!! I got nothing beyond “some day you will no longer be a teenager and life will be better”. Anyone else have anything wiser or more helpful to say?
And in much lighter news, it’s Lillette Dubey’s birthday! Let us all watch her amazing moment in “Preity Woman” and celebrate her!
