I still remember being called out as a 6th grader and being told I was going to, "Get my a** kicked by an 8th grader. The reality, it was one hit from me, her hitting the ground and I was NEVER ever bothered all the way through high school graduation. Standing up to bullying was the answer. Parents time for a reality check. You allow your tween and teens plenty of computer freedom, but not the written word from an excellent writer with a good message. We have to stand up to bullying of all forms. Your censorship is a form of bullying. Shame on all of you. You know what is really offensive, is plain people making decisions that affect so many.
