Jennifer was bullied constantly throughout the seventh grade. When eighth grade started, she thought it’d continue — but then someone unexpected stepped in.
After being bullied consistently for more than a year in middle school, Jennifer found an ally in an unexpected person who helped put an end to the torment.
"They would wait for me in the hallway at the end of class so that they could start picking on me right away," Jennifer said."And they would corner me in this area of the school called 'the draw off' where they would kind of form a ring around me and insult me." The rest of the school year went on like this. Jennifer's grades suffered. She would cry on the bus most days on the way home from school, trying to get herself together so that her mother wouldn't know what was happening. During the summer between seventh and eighth grade, the ringleader of the group that had targeted her was tragically killed in a car accident.
"She said, 'My girls tell me that you've been insulting them,'" Jennifer remembered."And I was just so surprised, and the injustice of it shocked me so thoroughly that it knocked the pins right out from under me."That pushed Jennifer over the edge. The whole story tumbled out of her mouth. "I don't know what it takes, what kind of strength of character it must take to do the right thing in middle school when nobody does the right thing, but she did," Jennifer said.
