My mom is really short and her gene in this case was more dominant

If it's genetic then there's not much you can do, so stay strong and don't let their comments bring you down :3

Simone Biles is only 1.42 m.

Im an 11-year-old going through body shaming. Im short and whoever I talk to that's the first thing they point out. all people judge me by is how short I am,and I really wanna frick them
Coping methods?

I have a friend who was quite short when he was your age; he also had to deal with this. He ended up teaching himself coding and hacked another friend's device once for a dare from the owner of the device. (Not as an attack against that person, but just to show that he could do it.) He became the class genius.

And I, I wasn't short as a kid, quite the opposite, but I got teased for other things... being different in ways... and learned not to care. Just know that what they say doesn't matter, it doesn't define you. If you have a hobby that you like, doing that can help handle it (for me it was listening to classical music (which I still love today), spending time in nature, and a little bit of martial arts – which last can help deal with it in more ways than one). Be confident in yourself.

@ryanshen15 being short is not a shame. I know that nobody can tell this to your bullies, but its all a matter of time.

What can you control?

• Sleeping on time
• Avoid junk food
• Play sports
• Finishing your work on time
• Getting good marks
• Top your class and get the first rank.
• Staying positive

What can you not control?

• Your future height
• Who else is going to point your height
• Whether you will increasr your height or not
• Whether your bullies will stop or not

Why stress on things u cant control?

Coping tip:

1. Take a paper and draw a line with a pen that divides the paper in 2 halves: What i can control & What i cannot control

2. Write everything u can control in the left side of page and write everything u cannot control on right side of page.

3. Now, tear the part of the page in which u wrote 'things i cant control' and throw it it away!

4. Look at the part of page which has heading 'things i can control' and now try your best to control them. I gave some examples above.

both u and us dont know what will happen in future, but u can make it better by controlling what u can

you are not alone, a lot of us have been through this. And i was one of them too.

i certainly couldn’t think of all the solutions that ai came up with. not an expert on growing. but ai has a lot of good ideas so why not

This might be the reason why intelligence is falling.

Your opinion tho

Thats certainly a debatable topic for I believe that poeple's brain dont really activate when ai is used and most likely, they copy and paste what ai says without understanding the topic or the reason behind it.
