I have only a handful of close girlfriends and what just happened is exactly the reason why…I was walking to my car after a super rad workout and I was passing by two girls and one them looked me up and down and said within earshot: “Try a little harder...
The truth of the matter is, even when one becomes an adult, if they were victims of bullying as a kid, it will forever stay with them. Throw in having your own kids into the mix and it takes on a whole different level of worrying, trusting in the school...
