Back at the first Elementary school I went to, I had a few friends, they enjoyed Nintendo and TV shows I liked, such as the Simpsons and other shows. From Kindergarten to the 3rd grade, I actually enjoyed being with my friends at school.
(Yeah, I know, it's hard to believe, I actually did have friends.)
At the beginning of 4th grade, things started going downhill for me pretty quickly. When my friends heard that I was moving, they thought I was too good for them, so they pretty much did nothing with me the one week I was in 4th grade at that school. When I moved, I hoped that I could make many new friends at the new school I was going to. Boy, was I wrong.
The children in the class I was in were very rude, and insulted me pretty much all day. A group of girls always told on me whenever I did something suspicious, and the teacher was just plain mean. The guy I mentioned in my first post was my only good friend (though a couple of other people did warm up to me after a month or so).
5th grade was a bit better, as I made a few more friends, though it was a bit harder to, as I had gained weight because I ate more to forget about the mean students in the 4th grade.
Then, it was on to Middle School, the place where children are in between learning simple Math and English, and learning about Physics, Geometry and Calculus.
6th grade, I still didn't have many friends (Some had gone on to the other Middle School in the district), and there were just plain mean students who didn't deserve to be called human. I had also lost the only true friend I made in 4th grade, he had turned into a jerk.
I had a feeling that 7th grade was better, as usually, the odd grades I was in (1st, 3rd, 5th) were a bit better than the even ones. Once again, I was terribly wrong. The children in this grade were worse than the children in my 4th and 6th grade classes combined. The majority of them were people who listened to Rap and R&B, and were brainwashed by the media thinking that you MUST be thin to go on in life. So, I was pretty much the biggest target for fat jokes in that class (I was the only target, actually).
Sapphira is correct, you can't change people. They must change themselves. I'll stop getting into details about how children are mean and nasty in earlier years, because after I changed my classes in the 7th grade, things started to look up. I finally found a group of friends in 8th grade, and I went on to High School, and people are nicer now, my 9th and 10th grade years went quite well, with some exceptions of a few idiots I am usually able to shrug off.
And what happened to those jerks in 4th, 6th and 7th grade? They usually cut class, and do drugs, and some were probably held back.
