When your shoe size does not match your age
There is always one thing or another that people seem to find in order to call people names while being in school. While growing up everyone always made fun of how small my feet are and how I would wear small shoes. At first, I would get annoyed and angry about it; however, the more I started appreciating myself and seeing how lucky I am to even walk no matter what my shoe size is, the more confident I got. This helped me ignore what people said to me about my feet and stopped bothering me. The more I ignored people’s comments the less they made fun of me.
