According to Back to the Future we already have hoverboards!

I was bullied through out grade school. I was in fights with other kids all of the time and I got molested on the school bus by another boy who was bullying me and CPS got involved. IN the 6th grade I was put in a Catholic school where kids took turns hitting me in the arm and face on the school bus, so my mom switched me to parent pick up. Through out Middle School kids assumed I was homosexual and ostracized me. It was mostly name calling and other kids threatening to beat me up. In high school, I only dealt with one bully and we got into a fist fight to which I was arrested and charged with assault on school grounds because I was 18. He was not charged with anything because he was 17.

That's awful, I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that! I understand completely, minus the fights, I would take but never give back. There are some truly awful people in this world.

Mum in tears at 8-year-old daughter's heartbreaking Christmas list request

A mum's 'heart sank' after she was given her eight-year-old daughter's Christmas list for 2022. She has now shared the list in the hope of getting a conversation going

I think a lot of people don't realize that even if you were bullied in middle school, high school, etc it does stay and stick with you.

If I ever found out my child made another child feel this way I’d be seriously upset and heartbroken.

Aww, I am sure that kid in the article will get more friends and less bullying one day.

I had a target on my forehead for bullies apparently because I was the quiet/shy type in school. I don't really think about bullies anymore, but I think they contributed to my view of humanity to this day.

was shy with pop bottle glasses. In 5th grade some girl started picking on me out of the blue. Like I didn't know WHY she was even talking to me or bothering with me at all. It was just weird. She would call me names. Or sit behind me and kick my chair. Then one day she came over and started saying things to me and I didn't even know how to react or what to think and she literally just up and slapped me across the face. I was so stunned I don't even think I cried. Then the Principal got involved and she said that I TOLD her to slap me. I was like "why would I say that, that makes no sense". Then after that I don't really know what happened but it seemed to quiet down.

I am sure karma got those bullies and now they have miserable lives. I don't wish that on anyone but thats usually how it works out for them.

Indeed, a lot of bullies probably work low-paying jobs or have dealt with some type of abuse as an adult. The world keeps spinning.

I had bullies once... had one try to push me off the third floor into the courtyard...
fortunately at the time I'd been learning martial arts so I stopped myself from something very lethal. not much happened after that, I dropped out, got my GED, had my home searched for WMD's after being called racist by the vice principal... weird times.

more recently had a family member be physically abusive... it didn't really work because martial arts but jealousy is a strong motivator no matter how many punches get deflected and times the person is thrown.

it unfortunately got into a legal battle but I've not a permanent restraining order so it's no longer an issue. If only they'd dropped it when their punch was deflected and were tossed onto the couch the first time...

If you're ever being bullied I highly recommend starting with tai-chi. It's good for focusing the mind but more importantly it's a purely defensive martial art, when sped up it deflects punches, kicks, etc and can be combined with multiple fighting styles to suit your tastes.
and hey... they have to give up sometime right?
